Detail

Multiple vulnerabilities has been found and corrected in phpmyadmin:

Missing sanitization on the table, column and index names leads to XSS vulnerabilities (CVE-2011-3181).

Firstly, if a row contains javascript code, after inline editing this row and saving, the code is executed. Secondly, missing sanitization on the db, table and column names leads to XSS vulnerabilities.

When the js_frame parameter of phpmyadmin.css.php is defined as an array, an error message shows the full path of this file, leading to possible further attacks (CVE-2011-3646).

Crafted values entered in the setup interface can produce XSS; also, if the config directory exists and is writeable, the XSS payload can be saved to this directory (CVE-2011-4064).

This upgrade provides the latest phpmyadmin version (3.4.6) to address these vulnerabilities.

Id Description
77103 phpMyAdmin phpmyadmin.css.php js_frame Parameter Path Disclosure
76711 phpMyAdmin setup.php Unspecified XSS

phpMyAdmin contains a flaw that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate certain unspecified input upon submission to the setup.php script. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
74781 phpMyAdmin Tracking Feature Multiple Field XSS

phpMyAdmin contains a flaw in the tracking feature that allows a remote cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate input passed via the 'table', 'column' and 'index' names before returning it to the user. This may allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary script code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between their browser and the server.
