This seven-file repository is a purpose-built local reproduction pack for CVE-2026-82226, an unauthenticated PHP object-injection issue (CWE-502) in the Tickera WordPress event-ticketing plugin through version 3.6.0.2. Its primary artifact is the Python 3 script CVE-2026-82226-Abraxas-Labs.py. The script retrieves values from a lab nonce page, establishes the Tickera cart cookie, submits an unauthenticated checkout POST containing a PHP serialized canary object in an owner-data post-meta field, and submits a free-orders payment request. This exercises the stated chain from cart update/session storage into TC::create_order and maybe_unserialize(). It follows redirects and checks response content and the local debug log for POCWitness82226, rather than treating a generic HTTP 200 response as success. The payload is deliberately a non-RCE canary and no gadget chain, command, reverse shell, file-write action, or remote callback is included. README.md documents the affected and patched versions, expected witness, preconditions, and remediation. The lab directory contains a Dockerfile and Docker Compose configuration for WordPress 6.4/PHP 8.2 with MySQL 8.0, published exclusively on 127.0.0.1:8088; the vulnerable plugin must be supplied as a local read-only mount. The repository is not part of a recognized exploit framework and is best classified as a controlled proof of concept.
