medium Nessus Plugin ID 69448

Language:

Synopsis

The remote web server hosts a PHP application that is affected by a clickjacking vulnerability.

Description

According to its self-identified version number, the phpMyAdmin 3.5.x or 4.x install hosted on the remote web server is earlier than 4.0.5 and, therefore, contains a flaw where the 'Header.class.php' script does not properly sanitize input. This could allow attackers to bypass the application's clickjacking protections.

Solution

Either upgrade to phpMyAdmin 4.0.5 or later, or apply the patches from the referenced link.
