Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions phpMyAdmin versions 4.2.x through 4.2.5

Description A cross-site scripting (XSS) issue exists due to improper handling of crafted table comments during the construction of a database structure page. This allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML. The issue is related to the PMA getHtmlForActionLinks function in libraries/structure.lib.php.

Recommendations For phpMyAdmin versions 4.2.x through 4.2.5, update to version 4.2.6 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the database structure page to minimize the risk of exploitation.
