Working the FLL Final; Aircraft X was at 5;000 feet tracking inbound the ILS for [Runway] 10R. A VFR target was observed coming off of the OPF/HWO area VFR climbing to the northwest; through both FLL finals. Aircraft X was issued the traffic and could not descend on the approach because the VFR was climbing unrestricted and uncontrolled. Aircraft X was then very high and unstable on the approach; creating an unsafe situation.FLL airport is the 19th busiest airport in the USA; and one of the top 3 fastest growing; averaging 8% growth each of the last 5 years. FLL has a basic Class C airspace surrounding it that is beyond out of date and unable to aid in the safety of its aircraft on the finals. Planes inbound to each of their parallel runways are not offered any sort of protection until within 5 miles of the field. [This] allows several dozen VFRs each day to climb; descend; and transition across each final; without ATC advisories creating a very dangerous; unsafe; and hazardous situation in the skies above. The FLL Class C is inadequate; and out of date; and needs a major airspace change around it; whether a bigger Charlie; or a full blown Class B before it's too late.
MIA TRACON Controller reported an airborne conflict with an IFR arrival to FLL and a VFR aircraft.
