Php Unserialize Audit

Category: Engineering  ·  Sub-category: languages  ·  Last updated:
lang:phptype:audit
Audit PHP engine deserialization surface (unserialize, session decoders, WDDX, phar metadata, custom ce->unserialize handlers, Serializable implementers, magic-method dispatch during deserialization) for UAF via R:/r: back-references, type confusion, partial-object __destruct, signed-length heap overflow, and parse inconsistency. Gathers zval / HashTable / var_hash semantics before launching parallel sonnet agents. Opus verifies HIGH/MEDIUM findings. For general (non-deserialization) PHP memory-safety bugs like user-callback reentrancy UAFs, use /php-audit instead.

How Php Unserialize Audit fits the catalog

Php Unserialize Audit sits in the Engineering category under the languages sub-topic in the ClaudSkills catalog. There are 10 related skills indexed alongside it; comparing a few before installing usually reveals which fits your workflow best.

From the source SKILL.md

Purpose: find exploitable bugs in PHP's deserialization surface and related object-lifetime code that is reachable through deserialization. For general PHP engine memory-safety bugs outside the deserialization flow (e.g. the extract() callback-reentrancy UAF, array_walk callback mutations, generic hash-slot UAFs), use the companion /php-audit skill.

What this skill does

Php Unserialize Audit is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the languages sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/php-unserialize-audit/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
