   * This option is not available currently for sessions and any other functions that use unserialization without calling unserialize(). This may be added later if needed, but for sessions it is very unlikely that untrusted user data will be injected as serialized session data - in that case the problems with security are much larger as pretty much any session-based authentication will be immediately broken.     * This option is not available currently for sessions and any other functions that use unserialization without calling unserialize().

 +===== API change =====
 +
 +After some thought and discussion, I have decided to slightly change the API:
 +
 +<code php>
 +// this will unserialize everything as before
 +$data = unserialize($foo); 
 +// this will convert all objects into __PHP_Incomplete_Class object
 +$data = unserialize($foo, ["allowed_classes" => false]); 
 +// this will convert all objects except ones of MyClass and MyClass2 into __PHP_Incomplete_Class object
 +$data = unserialize($foo, ["allowed_classes" => ["MyClass", "MyClass2"]); 
 +//accept all classes as in default
 +$data = unserialize($foo, ["allowed_classes" => true]); 
 +</code>
 +
 +This will allow to extend the options array in the future if we ever want to add more parameters. No objections were voiced on the list regarding this API change.
