phpMyAdmin is a web-based management tool for MySQL databases.
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in phpMyAdmin:
- Greg Ose discovered that the setup script does not sanitize input
properly, leading to the injection of arbitrary PHP code into the
configuration file (CVE-2009-1151).
- Manuel Lopez Gallego and
Santiago Rodriguez Collazo reported that data from cookies used in the
"Export" page is not properly sanitized (CVE-2009-1150).
A remote unauthorized attacker could exploit the first vulnerability to
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
phpMyAdmin and conduct Cross-Site Scripting attacks using the second
vulnerability.
Removing the "scripts/setup.php" file protects you from CVE-2009-1151.
All phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.11.9.5"
