Several issues have been fixed in phpMyAdmin, the web administration tool for MySQL.

CVE-2014-8958

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities.

CVE-2014-9218

Denial of service (resource consumption) via a long password.

CVE-2015-2206

Risk of BREACH attack due to reflected parameter.

CVE-2015-3902

XSRF/CSRF vulnerability in phpMyAdmin setup.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

A vulnerability has been discovered and corrected in phpmyadmin :

libraries/select_lang.lib.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.9, 4.2.x before 4.2.13.2, and 4.3.x before 4.3.11.1 includes invalid language values in unknown-language error responses that contain a CSRF token and may be sent with HTTP compression, which makes it easier for remote attackers to conduct a BREACH attack and determine this token via a series of crafted requests (CVE-2015-2206).

This upgrade provides the latest phpmyadmin version (4.2.13.2) to address this vulnerability.

Additionally, the phpseclib package has been upgraded to the 0.3.10 version.

The phpMyAdmin development team reports :

Risk of BREACH attack due to reflected parameter.

With a large number of crafted requests it was possible to infer the CSRF token by a BREACH attack.

Mitigation factor: this vulnerability can only be exploited in the presence of another vulnerability that allows the attacker to inject JavaScript into victim's browser.

phpMyAdmin was updated to 4.2.13.3 to fix three security issues.

The following vulnerabilities were fixed :

  - CVE-2015-3902: CSRF vulnerability in setup     (PMASA-2015-2, boo#930992)

  - CVE-2015-3903: Vulnerability allowing man-in-the-middle     attack (PMASA-2015-3, boo#930993)

  - CVE-2015-2206: Risk of BREACH attack (PMASA-2015-1,     boo#920773)

Also contains all upstream bug fixes in the 4.2.13 branch.

According to its self-reported version number, the phpMyAdmin application hosted on the remote web server is 4.0.x prior to 4.0.10.9, 4.2.x prior to 4.2.13.2, or 4.3.x prior to 4.3.11.1. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability due to the length of compressed HTTPS responses not being hidden. This allows a remote attacker, using a series of crafted requests, to obtain the CSRF token via a BREACH attack.

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Versions of phpMyAdmin 4.0.x prior to 4.0.10.9, 4.2.x prior to 4.2.13.2, or 4.3.x prior to 4.3.11.1 are unpatched for an information disclosure vulnerability due to the length of compressed HTTPS responses not being hidden. This allows a remote attacker, using a series of crafted requests, to obtain the CSRF token via a BREACH attack.
