Several remote vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpMyAdmin, a tool
to administer MySQL over the web. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project identifies the following problems:
CVE-2010-3055
The configuration setup script does not properly sanitise its output
file, which allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via
a crafted POST request. In Debian, the setup tool is protected through
Apache HTTP basic authentication by default.
CVE-2010-3056
Various cross site scripting issues have been discovered that allow
a remote attacker to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 2.11.8.1-5+lenny6.
For the testing (squeeze) and unstable distribution (sid), these problems
have been fixed in version 3.3.5.1-1.
We recommend that you upgrade your phpmyadmin package.
