Fedora 30: FEDORA-2019-13d2ba0aed critical: phpMyAdmin CSRF Attack

phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the administration of

MySQL over the World Wide Web. Most frequently used operations are supported

by the user interface (managing databases, tables, fields, relations, indexes,

users, permissions), while you still have the ability to directly execute any

SQL statement.

Features include an intuitive web interface, support for most MySQL features

(browse and drop databases, tables, views, fields and indexes, create, copy,

drop, rename and alter databases, tables, fields and indexes, maintenance

server, databases and tables, with proposals on server configuration, execute,

edit and bookmark any SQL-statement, even batch-queries, manage MySQL users

and privileges, manage stored procedures and triggers), import data from CSV

and SQL, export data to various formats: CSV, SQL, XML, PDF, OpenDocument Text

and Spreadsheet, Word, Excel, LATEX and others, administering multiple servers,

creating PDF graphics of your database layout, creating complex queries using

Query-by-example (QBE), searching globally in a database or a subset of it,

transforming stored data into any format using a set of predefined functions,

like displaying BLOB-data as image or download-link and much more...

Upstream announcement: Welcome to **phpMyAdmin 4.9.0.1**, a bugfix release that

includes important security fixes. This release fixes two security

vulnerabilities: * PMASA-2019-3 is an SQL injection flaw in the Designer

feature * PMASA-2019-4 is a CSRF attack that's possible through the 'cookie'

login form Upgrading is highly recommended for all users. Using the 'http'

auth_type instead of 'cookie' can mitigate the CSRF attack. The solution for

the CSRF attack does remove the former functionality to log in directly through

URL parameters (as mentioned in FAQ 4.8, such as

;password=foo). Such behavior

was discouraged and is now removed. Other query parameters work as expected;

only pma_username and pma_password have been removed. This release also

includes fixes for many bugs, including: - Several issues with SYSTEM

VERSIONING tables - Fixed json encode error in export - Fixed JavaScript events

not activating on input (sql bookmark issue) - Show Designer combo boxes when

adding a constraint - Fix edit view - Fixed invalid default value for bit field

- Fix several errors relating to GIS data types - Fixed javascript error

PMA_messages is not defined - Fixed import XML data with leading zeros - Fixed

php notice, added support for 'DELETE HISTORY' table privilege (MariaDB >10.3.4) - Fixed MySQL 8.0.0 issues with GIS display - Fixed "Server charset" in

"Database server" tab showing wrong information - Fixed can not copy user on

Percona Server 5.7 - Updated sql-parser to version 4.3.2, which fixes several

parsing and linting problems There are many, many more bug fixes thanks to the

efforts of our developers, Google Summer of Code applicants, and other

contributors. The phpMyAdmin team ---- **phpmyadmin/sql-parser version

4.3.2** * Fix redundant whitespaces in build() outputs (#228) * Fix incorrect

error on DEFAULT keyword in ALTER operation (#229) * Fix incorrect outputs from

Query::getClause (#233) * Add support for reading an SQL file from stdin * Fix

for missing tokenize-query in Composer's vendor/bin/ directory * Fix for PHP

warnings with an incomplete CASE expression (#241) * Fix for error message with

multiple CALL statements (#223) * Recognize the question mark character as a

parameter (#242)

* Tue Jun 4 2019 Remi Collet - 4.9.0.1-1

- update to 4.9.0.1 (2019-06-04, important security fixes)

- raise dependency on phpmyadmin/sql-parser version 4.3.2
