FreeBSD : phpmyadmin -- multiple vulnerabilities (d79fc873-b5f9-11e0-89b4-001ec9578670)

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

The phpMyAdmin development team reports :

XSS in table Print view.

Via a crafted MIME-type transformation parameter, an attacker can perform a local file inclusion.

In the 'relational schema' code a parameter was not sanitized before being used to concatenate a class name.

The end result is a local file inclusion vulnerability and code execution.

It was possible to manipulate the PHP session superglobal using some of the Swekey authentication code.

This is very similar to PMASA-2011-5, documented in 7e4e5c53-a56c-11e0-b180-00216aa06fc2

Solution

Update the affected package.
