Unauthenticated object injection via negative integer keys
Published Sep 17, 2026 · Updated Sep 18, 2026
Deserialization in b2evolution CMS 6.7.8 through 7.2.5 allows remote attackers to instantiate arbitrary PHP objects via crafted POST requests. The param_check_serialized_array() validator fails to recognize object tokens following negative integer array keys, so htsrv/call_plugin.php passes the payload to unserialize(). No authentication or user interaction is required; code execution requires a suitable PHP POP gadget chain in the installation.
