Calif enables the systematic auditing of PHP source code to detect memory-safety vulnerabilities arising from improper deserialization. It focuses on identifying insecure object injection points and potential memory corruption flaws that could be exploited by malicious actors during the deserialization process.

Security researchers, penetration testers, and backend engineers responsible for maintaining legacy PHP applications benefit from these capabilities. It is designed for professionals tasked with hardening codebases against object injection attacks and ensuring memory integrity during data reconstruction.

Users must possess the target PHP source code and a fundamental understanding of object-oriented deserialization patterns. The audit process requires manual or semi-automated review of class definitions and magic methods to identify where untrusted input might trigger unsafe memory operations.
