Unserializable, but unreachable: Remote code execution on vBulletin

A pre-authentication unserialize sits in vBulletin's ORM, where an array field is validated by deserialising it. No in-tree gadget works because every vBulletin class blocks wakeup, so the researchers deserialise a fake class name that the autoloader converts into a file path, forcing it to include a disabled package's Composer autoloader and bringing Monolog gadget chains into scope for RCE.
