Security vulnerability in dompdf
[2008-02-05] A security vulnerability in dompdf has recently been discovered. The vulnerability would allow an attacker to access any file readable by the webserver. A solution is being developed presently.
Until a new version is available, it is recommended that all users remove the dompdf.php file from their installation and to use the dompdf class directly (see http://www.digitaljunkies.ca/dompdf/usage.php#class). If it is not possible to remove dompdf.php, the PHP ini option open_basedir should be set to a secure base directory (see http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.safe-mode.php#ini.open-basedir).

dompdf-0.4.4 released
[2005-12-30] dompdf-0.4.4 has been released! Major improvments have been made to the page break code, particularly for tables. A new GD-based rendering backend has been added, so now dompdf can render PNGs, JPEGs and GIFs. (Note that this backend is still somewhat experimental.)
The page count bug introduced in 0.4.3 has been fixed, and PDF compression is now enabled by default, so generated PDFs should be smaller.
A host of other small bugfixes have also been included. As usual, feel free to hit the sourceforge forums or to send me an email if you have any questions or need help. (0 comments)
