This appears to be used to direct write cache for testing purposes.
It's not an intentional backdoor.
It's more likely an insider leak of some private headers or something that gave someone the info necessary.
Or Apple left too much stuff in the debug info.
It would not be the first time either has happened.

This screams backdoor by some powerful actors.
