phpMyAdmin 2.6.0-pl2, and other versions before 2.6.1, with external transformations enabled, allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary commands via shell metacharacters.
Multiple unspecified vulnerabilities in phpMyAdmin before 2.9.2-rc1 have unknown impact and attack vectors.
libraries/File.class.php in phpMyAdmin 2.11.x before 2.11.10 creates a temporary directory with 0777 permissions, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.
libraries/File.class.php in phpMyAdmin 2.11.x before 2.11.10 uses predictable filenames for temporary files, which has unknown impact and attack vectors.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin involving the $cfg['ArbitraryServerRegexp'] configuration directive. An attacker could reuse certain cookie values in a way of bypassing the servers defined by ArbitraryServerRegexp. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.4), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.8), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.17) are affected.
Setup script used to generate configuration can be fooled using a crafted POST request to include arbitrary PHP code in generated configuration file.
An issue was discovered in SearchController in phpMyAdmin before 4.9.6 and 5.x before 5.0.3. A SQL injection vulnerability was discovered in how phpMyAdmin processes SQL statements in the search feature. An attacker could use this flaw to inject malicious SQL in to a query.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin before 4.8.5. A vulnerability was reported where a specially crafted username can be used to trigger a SQL injection attack through the designer feature.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. Due to a bug in serialized string parsing, it was possible to bypass the protection offered by PMAsafeUnserialize() function. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.5), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.9), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.18) are affected.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. Some data is passed to the PHP unserialize() function without verification that it's valid serialized data. The unserialization can result in code execution because of the interaction with object instantiation and autoloading. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.4), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.8), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.17) are affected.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. It is possible to bypass AllowRoot restriction ($cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowRoot']) and deny rules for username by using Null Byte in the username. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.5), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.9), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.18) are affected.
SQL injection vulnerability in libraries/centralcolumns.lib.php in phpMyAdmin 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7 and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary SQL commands via a crafted database name that is mishandled in a central column query.
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.
phpMyAdmin before 4.9.2 does not escape certain Git information, related to libraries/classes/Display/GitRevision.php and libraries/classes/Footer.php.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin before 4.9.2. A crafted database/table name can be used to trigger a SQL injection attack through the designer feature.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin before 4.9.0.1. A vulnerability was reported where a specially crafted database name can be used to trigger an SQL injection attack through the designer feature.
An issue was discovered in libraries/common.inc.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0 before 4.0.10.20, 4.4.x, 4.6.x, and 4.7.0 prereleases. The restrictions caused by $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] = false are bypassed under certain PHP versions (e.g., version 5). This can allow the login of users who have no password set even if the administrator has set $cfg['Servers'][$i]['AllowNoPassword'] to false (which is also the default). This occurs because some implementations of the PHP substr function return false when given '' as the first argument.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. When the argseparator is different from its default & value, the CSRF token was not properly stripped from the return URL of the preference import action. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.5), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.9), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.18) are affected.
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.
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.
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.
DISPUTED phpMyAdmin through 5.0.2 allows CSV injection via Export Section. NOTE: the vendor disputes this because "the CSV file is accurately generated based on the database contents."
phpMyAdmin 4.8.0 before 4.8.0-1 has CSRF, allowing an attacker to execute arbitrary SQL statements, related to js/dboperations.js, js/tbloperations.js, libraries/classes/Operations.php, and sql.php.
phpMyAdmin 4.0, 4.4 and 4.6 are vulnerable to a weakness where a user with appropriate permissions is able to connect to an arbitrary MySQL server
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. A specially crafted database name could be used to run arbitrary PHP commands through the array export feature. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.4), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.8), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.17) are affected.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. In the user interface preference feature, a user can execute an SQL injection attack against the account of the control user. All 4.6.x versions (prior to 4.6.4), 4.4.x versions (prior to 4.4.15.8), and 4.0.x versions (prior to 4.0.10.17) are affected.
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin 4.8.x before 4.8.2, in which an attacker can include (view and potentially execute) files on the server. The vulnerability comes from a portion of code where pages are redirected and loaded within phpMyAdmin, and an improper test for whitelisted pages. An attacker must be authenticated, except in the "$cfg['AllowArbitraryServer'] = true" case (where an attacker can specify any host he/she is already in control of, and execute arbitrary code on phpMyAdmin) and the "$cfg['ServerDefault'] = 0" case (which bypasses the login requirement and runs the vulnerable code without any authentication).
phpMyAdmin 4.7.x and 4.8.x versions prior to 4.8.4 are affected by a series of CSRF flaws. By deceiving a user into clicking on a crafted URL, it is possible to perform harmful SQL operations such as renaming databases, creating new tables/routines, deleting designer pages, adding/deleting users, updating user passwords, killing SQL processes, etc.
phpMyAdmin versions 4.7.x (prior to 4.7.6.1/4.7.7) are vulnerable to a CSRF weakness. By deceiving a user to click on a crafted URL, it is possible to perform harmful database operations such as deleting records, dropping/truncating tables etc.
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.
