According to its self-reported version number, the phpMyAdmin application hosted on the remote web server is 4.4.x prior to 4.4.15.7. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities:

  - A flaw exists in the setup/frames/index.inc.php script     that allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to access     the program on a non-HTTPS connection and thereby inject     arbitrary BBCode against HTTP sessions. (CVE-2016-5701)

  - A flaw exists in the libraries/central_columns.lib.php     script when handling database names due to improper     sanitization of user-supplied input. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this, via a crafted database     name, to inject or manipulate SQL queries in the     back-end database, resulting in modification or     disclosure of arbitrary data. (CVE-2016-5703)

  - Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities     exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input     before returning it to users. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit these, via specially crafted     requests, to execute arbitrary script code or HTML in a     a user's browser session. (CVE-2016-5705)

  - A flaw exists in the js/get_scripts.js.php script when     handling a large array in the 'scripts' parameter during     the loading of a crafted JavaScript file. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     cause a denial of service condition. (CVE-2016-5706)

  - A information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     Example OpenID Authentication and Setup scripts that     allows an remote attacker, via multiple vectors, to     disclose the application's installation path in an     error message. (CVE-2016-5730)

  - A reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability     exists in the examples/openid.php script when handling     OpenID error messages due to improper validation of     input before returning it to users. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this, via a specially     crafted request, to execute arbitrary script code in a     user's browser session. (CVE-2016-5731)

  - Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities     exist due to improper validation of user-supplied input     before returning it to users. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit these, via specially crafted     requests, to execute arbitrary script code or HTML in a     user's browser session. (CVE-2016-5733)

  - A flaw exists in the table search and replace feature     due to improper sanitization of parameters before     passing them to the preg_replace() function. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via     a specially crafted string, to execute arbitrary PHP     code. (CVE-2016-5734)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     libraries/Header.class.php script when handling     transformations due to a failure to use the 'no-referer'     Content Security Policy (CSP) protection mechanism. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted Transformation, to disclose sensitive     authentication token information, which then can be     potentially used to facilitate cross-site request     forgery (XSRF) attacks. (CVE-2016-5739)

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.
