| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:N |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
phpMyAdmin versions prior to 2.6.4-pl3
Description
The issue concerns the register globals emulation layer in grab globals.php, which fails to perform safety checks on values in the FILES array for uploaded files. This allows remote attackers to include arbitrary files by making direct requests to library scripts that do not use grab globals.php and then modifying certain configuration values for the theme.
Recommendations
For versions prior to 2.6.4-pl3, update to version 2.6.4-pl3 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to library scripts that do not use grab globals.php to minimize the risk of exploitation.
