Synopsis
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Multiple errors in phpMyAdmin might allow the remote execution of
arbitrary code or a Cross-Site Scripting attack.
Background
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
phpMyAdmin is a web-based management tool for MySQL databases.
Affected packages
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
-------------------------------------------------------------------
1 dev-db/phpmyadmin < 2.11.9.5 >=3D 2.11.9.5
Description
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in phpMyAdmin:
* Greg Ose discovered that the setup script does not sanitize input
properly, leading to the injection of arbitrary PHP code into the
configuration file (CVE-2009-1151).
* Manuel Lopez Gallego and Santiago Rodriguez Collazo reported that
data from cookies used in the "Export" page is not properly sanitized
(CVE-2009-1150).
Impact
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
A remote unauthorized attacker could exploit the first vulnerability to
execute arbitrary code with the privileges of the user running
phpMyAdmin and conduct Cross-Site Scripting attacks using the second
vulnerability.
Workaround
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
Removing the "scripts/setup.php" file protects you from CVE-2009-1151.
Resolution
=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D=3D
All phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge --sync
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=3Ddev-db/phpmyadmin-2.11.9.5"
