GUnet OpenEclass 1.7.3 includes phpMyAdmin 2.10.0.2 by default, which allows remote logins. Attackers with access to the platform can remotely access phpMyAdmin and, after uploading a shell, view the config.php file to obtain the MySQL password, leading to full database compromise.
SQL Injection vulnerability in function getTableCreationQuery in CreateAddField.php in phpMyAdmin 5.x before 5.2.0 via the tblstorageengine or tblcollation parameters to tblcreate.php.
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.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in dbcentralcolumns.php in phpMyAdmin before 4.7.8 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted URL.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in import.php in phpMyAdmin before 4.1.7 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted filename in an import action.
Setup script used to generate configuration can be fooled using a crafted POST request to include arbitrary PHP code in generated configuration file.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in the export page (displayexport.lib.php) in phpMyAdmin 2.11.x before 2.11.9.5 and 3.x before 3.1.3.1 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the pmadbfilenametemplate cookie.
CRLF injection vulnerability in bsdispasmimetype.php in the BLOB streaming feature in phpMyAdmin before 3.1.3.1 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks via the (1) ctype and possibly (2) filetype parameters.
Directory traversal vulnerability in bsdispasmimetype.php in the BLOB streaming feature in phpMyAdmin before 3.1.3.1 allows remote attackers to read arbitrary files via directory traversal sequences in the filepath parameter ($filename variable).
Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerability in phpMyAdmin 2.11.x before 2.11.9.4 and 3.x before 3.1.1.0 allows remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions as the administrator via a link or IMG tag to tblstructure.php with a modified table parameter. NOTE: other unspecified pages are also reachable, but they have the same root cause. NOTE: this can be leveraged to conduct SQL injection attacks and execute arbitrary code.
The setup script for phpMyAdmin before 4.0.10.19, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.10, and 4.6.x before 4.6.6 allows remote attackers to conduct server-side request forgery (SSRF) attacks via unspecified vectors.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in error.php in phpMyAdmin 2.6.4 through 2.9.0.2 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via UTF-7 or US-ASCII encoded characters, which are injected into an error message, as demonstrated by a request with a utf7 charset parameter accompanied by UTF-7 data.
phpMyAdmin before 2.9.1-rc1 has a libraries directory under the web document root with insufficient access control, which allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via direct requests for certain files.
Multiple cross-site request forgery (CSRF) vulnerabilities in phpMyAdmin before 2.9.1-rc1 allow remote attackers to perform unauthorized actions as another user by (1) directly setting a token in the URL though dynamic variable evaluation and (2) unsetting arbitrary variables via the REQUEST array, related to (a) libraries/common.lib.php, (b) session.inc.php, and (c) urlgenerating.lib.php. NOTE: the PHP unset function vector is covered by CVE-2006-3017.
Multiple CRLF injection vulnerabilities in PhpMyAdmin 2.7.0-pl2 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary HTTP headers and conduct HTTP response splitting attacks via CRLF sequences in a phpMyAdmin cookie in (1) css/phpmyadmin.css.php, (2) dbcreate.php, (3) index.php, (4) left.php, (5) libraries/session.inc.php, (6) libraries/transformations/overview.php, (7) querywindow.php, (8) serverengines.php, and possibly other files.
PhpMyAdmin 2.7.0-pl2 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request for libraries/common.lib.php, which reveals the path in an error message.
phpMyAdmin 2.9.1.1 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a direct request for themes/darkblueorange/layout.inc.php, which reveals the path in an error message.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin 5.x before 5.2.2. An XSS vulnerability has been discovered for the check tables feature. A crafted table or database name could be used for XSS.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin 5.x before 5.2.2. An XSS vulnerability has been discovered for the Insert tab.
In phpMyAdmin before 4.9.11 and 5.x before 5.2.1, an authenticated user can trigger Cross-site Scripting (XSS) by uploading a crafted .sql file through the drag-and-drop interface. By disabling the configuration directive $cfg['enabledragdropimport'], users will be unable to use the drag and drop upload which would protect against the vulnerability.
js/getscripts.js.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.16, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7, and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service via a large array in the scripts parameter.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin 5.1 before 5.1.2. An attacker can inject malicious code into aspects of the setup script, which can allow XSS or HTML injection.
phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.16, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7, and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 does not properly choose delimiters to prevent use of the pregreplace e (aka eval) modifier, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a crafted string, as demonstrated by the table search-and-replace implementation.
The Transformation implementation in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.16, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7, and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 does not use the no-referrer Content Security Policy (CSP) protection mechanism, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct CSRF attacks by reading an authentication token in a Referer header, related to libraries/Header.php.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.16, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7, and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving (1) a crafted table name that is mishandled during privilege checking in tablerow.phtml, (2) a crafted mysqld logbin directive that is mishandled in logselector.phtml, (3) the Transformation implementation, (4) AJAX error handling in js/ajax.js, (5) the Designer implementation, (6) the charts implementation in js/tblchart.js, or (7) the zoom-search implementation in rowszoom.phtml.
Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in phpMyAdmin 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7 and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 allow remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors involving (1) server-privileges certificate data fields on the user privileges page, (2) an "invalid JSON" error message in the error console, (3) a database name in the central columns implementation, (4) a group name, or (5) a search name in the bookmarks implementation.
setup/frames/index.inc.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0.10.x before 4.0.10.16, 4.4.15.x before 4.4.15.7, and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 allows remote attackers to conduct BBCode injection attacks against HTTP sessions via a crafted URI.
The redirection feature in url.php in phpMyAdmin 4.4.x before 4.4.15.1 and 4.5.x before 4.5.1 allows remote attackers to spoof content via the url parameter.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in libraries/Error.class.php in phpMyAdmin 3.x before 3.3.6 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via vectors related to a PHP backtrace and error messages (aka debugging messages), a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-3056.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in libraries/config/ConfigFile.class.php in the setup interface in phpMyAdmin 3.4.x before 3.4.9 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the host parameter.
