Synopsis |
| 16 |
======== |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpMyAdmin, the worst |
| 19 |
of which may allow for remote code execution. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
Background |
| 22 |
========== |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
phpMyAdmin is a web-based management tool for MySQL databases. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Affected packages |
| 27 |
================= |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 30 |
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected |
| 31 |
------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| 32 |
1 dev-db/phpmyadmin < 2.11.9.4 >= 2.11.9.4 |

|
| 34 |
Description |
| 35 |
=========== |
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in phpMyAdmin: |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
* libraries/database_interface.lib.php in phpMyAdmin allows remote |
| 40 |
authenticated users to execute arbitrary code via a request to |
| 41 |
server_databases.php with a sort_by parameter containing PHP |
| 42 |
sequences, which are processed by create_function (CVE-2008-4096). |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
* Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in pmd_pdf.php allows |
| 45 |
remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the db |
| 46 |
parameter, a different vector than CVE-2006-6942 and CVE-2007-5977 |
| 47 |
(CVE-2008-4775). |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
* Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in phpMyAdmin |
| 50 |
allows remote authenticated attackers to perform unauthorized actions |
| 51 |
as the administrator via a link or IMG tag to tbl_structure.php with |
| 52 |
a modified table parameter. NOTE: this can be leveraged to conduct |
| 53 |
SQL injection attacks and execute arbitrary code (CVE-2008-5621). |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
* Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in |
| 56 |
phpMyAdmin allow remote attackers to conduct SQL injection attacks |
| 57 |
via unknown vectors related to the table parameter, a different |
| 58 |
vector than CVE-2008-5621 (CVE-2008-5622). |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
Impact |
| 61 |
====== |
| 62 |
|
| 63 |
A remote attacker may execute arbitrary code with the rights of the |
| 64 |
webserver, inject and execute SQL with the rights of phpMyAdmin or |
| 65 |
conduct XSS attacks against other users. |
| 66 |
|
| 67 |
Workaround |
| 68 |
========== |
| 69 |
|
| 70 |
There is no known workaround at this time. |
| 71 |
|
| 72 |
Resolution |
| 73 |
========== |
| 74 |
|
| 75 |
All phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version: |
| 76 |
|
| 77 |
# emerge --sync |
| 78 |
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.11.9.4" |
| 79 |
