## Technical details

Dokan Pro versions 5.0.2 and below are vulnerable to PHP Object Injection (CWE-502). The vulnerability arises from the deserialization of untrusted user input, which can be triggered by an authenticated attacker with at least 'Subscriber' privileges. While the attack complexity is rated as high (AC:H), a successful exploit could allow an attacker to leverage available Property-Oriented Programming (POP) chains to perform remote code execution, SQL injection, or file system manipulation. As of the advisory date, no official patch has been released by the vendor, though third-party mitigation rules are available.
