Detail
| A few vulnerabilities and security-related issues have been fixed in phpMyAdmin since the 2.11.7 release. This update provides version 2.11.9.2 which is the latest stable release of phpMyAdmin and fixes CVE-2008-3197, CVE-2008-3456, CVE-2008-3457, and CVE-2008-4096. No configuration changes should be required since the previous update (version 2.11.7). If upgrading from older versions, it may be necessary to reconfigure phpMyAdmin. The configuration file is located in /etc/phpMyAdmin/. In most cases, it should be sufficient so simply replace config.default.php with config.default.php.rpmnew and make whatever modifications are necessary. |

| Title: | DSA-1641 phpmyadmin -- several vulnerabilities | ||
| Description: | Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpMyAdmin, a tool to administrate MySQL databases over the web. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures project identifies the following problems: Remote authenticated users could execute arbitrary code on the host running phpMyAdmin through manipulation of a script parameter. Crossite scripting through the setup script was possible in rare circumstances. Protection has been added against remote websites loading phpMyAdmin into a frameset. Cross site request forgery allowed remote attackers to create a new database, but not perform any other action on it. | ||

| Id | Description |
|---|---|

| 47487 | phpMyAdmin setup.php Configuration Manipulation Based XSS |
| 47486 | phpMyAdmin setup.php Cross-Frame Scripting The phpMyAdmin protects cross-site framing only in index.php page. Due to its frame-friendly pages, it cannot protect framing to other pages by third-parties. Cross-site Framing is controlled by index.php. Attackers may take advantage of this and can do phishing or fooling user if the victim has authenticated. Cross-frame reading access is denied but a zero-day exploit can read across/control several frames contents. |
| 47322 | phpMyAdmin index.php Multiple Parameter CSRF phpMyAdmin contains a flaw that allows a remote Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF / XSRF) attack. The flaw exists because the application does not require multiple steps and/or confirmation for sensitive transactions for the "Create A Database" or "Change Character Set" functions. By using a crafted URL (e.g. a crafted GET request inside an "img" tag), an attacker may trick the victim into clicking on the image to take advantage of the trust relationship between the authenticated victim and the application. Such an attack could trick the victim into executing arbitrary commands in the context of their session with the application, without further prompting or verification. |
