## Technical details

The vulnerability stems from unsafe PHP unserialization of stored segment filter and custom field data without restricting class instantiation, allowing PHP object injection. Attackers with high privileges or database write access can craft malicious serialized payloads that instantiate arbitrary objects; combined with gadget chains in Mautic's dependencies, this enables remote code execution, data exfiltration, or availability impact during segment evaluation, contact export, or API requests.

## Affected products
