Well, it is technically possible, it could be MySQL, since MySQL can
be set to be case insensitive. Though, this just proves that
MediaWiki shouldn't rely on finding the page title in the database,
but also take the page title returned by MySQL (which would be the
correct case).

You might also want to check the variable type of the page title in the page table. The
variable type itself could be set to case insensitive, which an extension may have done.
For example, here's a web page I found describing how to set the Mediawiki DB to allow
case insensitive titles and what it describes may be something to look for in case one of
your extensions did the same.
