Synopsis

phpMyAdmin 4.5.x < 4.8.5 SQL Injection

Description

The version of phpMyAdmin installed on the remote host does not correctly handle malicious usernames leading to a SQL injection attack through the designer feature. Note that the scanner has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to phpMyAdmin version 4.8.5 or later.
