Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Multiple errors in phpMyAdmin might allow the remote execution of |
| 19 |
arbitrary code or a Cross-Site Scripting attack. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Background |
| 22 |
========== |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
phpMyAdmin is a web-based management tool for MySQL databases. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Affected packages |
| 27 |
================= |

|

Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
| 31 |

Description |
| 35 |
=========== |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in phpMyAdmin: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
* Greg Ose discovered that the setup script does not sanitize input |
| 40 |
properly, leading to the injection of arbitrary PHP code into the |
| 41 |
configuration file (CVE-2009-1151). |
| 42 |
|
| 43 |
* Manuel Lopez Gallego and Santiago Rodriguez Collazo reported that |
| 44 |
data from cookies used in the "Export" page is not properly sanitized |
| 45 |
(CVE-2009-1150). |
| 46 |
|
| 47 |
Impact |
| 48 |
====== |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
A remote unauthorized attacker could exploit the first vulnerability to |
| 51 |
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running |
| 52 |
phpMyAdmin and conduct Cross-Site Scripting attacks using the second |
| 53 |
vulnerability. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
Workaround |
| 56 |
========== |
| 57 |
|
| 58 |
Removing the "scripts/setup.php" file protects you from CVE-2009-1151. |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Resolution |
| 61 |
========== |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
All phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 64 |
|
| 65 |
# emerge --sync |
| 66 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.11.9.5" |
| 67 |
