CVE-2015-8562

In December 2015 a new vulnerability was found in Joomla. It allows a remote attacker to exploit PHP object injection attacks and execute arbitrary PHP code via the HTTP User-Agent header.

This vulnerability target Joomla 1.5.0 through 3.4.5 and PHP version before 5.4.45 (including 5.3.x), 5.5.29 or 5.6.13 CVE-2015-6835.

I've made this blog post explaining the vulnerability.

This is what the sent header looks like
