Re: CakePHP 2: Indirect modification of overloaded property ... has no effect

$this->data is only provided in the controller as BC way to read
data. Using it to write data the way you're doing it will result in
angry PHP. This is because of the way __get() works, in that it
returns read-only versions of the data it fetches.

You should be able to use the upgrade shell to update $this->data -->
$this->request->data.
