In phpMyAdmin 4 before 4.9.4 and 5 before 5.0.1, SQL injection exists in the user accounts page. A malicious user could inject custom SQL in place of their own username when creating queries to this page. An attacker must have a valid MySQL account to access the server.
A vulnerability was found in ImageMagick. Insufficient filtering for filename passed to delegate's command allows remote code execution during conversion of several file formats.
ImageMagick allows to process files with external libraries. This feature is called 'delegate'. It is implemented as a system() with command string ('command') from the config file delegates.xml with actual value for different params (input/output filenames etc). Due to insufficient %M param filtering it is possible to conduct shell command injection. One of the default delegate's command is used to handle https requests:
"wget" -q -O "%o" "https:%M"
where %M is the actual link from the input. It is possible to pass the value like https://example.com"|ls "-la and execute unexpected 'ls -la'. (wget or curl should be installed).
It is unexpected and not allowed to call TTY buffer helpers like ttyinsertflipstring concurrently. This may lead to crashes when ECHOing is enabled and concurrect writers call ptywrite in the meantime. In that case the two writers: the ECHOing from a workqueue and ptywrite from the process race and can overflow the corresponding TTY buffer.
An unprivileged local user could use this flaw to crash the system or, potentially, escalate their privileges on the system.
