PMASA-2007-5

Announcement-ID: PMASA-2007-5

Date: 2007-10-15

Summary

XSS vulnerability

Description

We received an advisory from Omer Singer, The DigiTrust Group, and we wish to thank him for his work.

It was possible to trigger this attack on setup.php.

Severity

We consider this vulnerability to be serious; however, we could only trigger it when using Internet Explorer with the 'send URLs as UTF8' setting disabled. The default value of this setting being 'enabled' reduces the impact of this problem.

Affected Versions

Probably all versions before 2.11.1.1.

Solution

Upgrade to phpMyAdmin 2.11.1.1 or newer.
