Alert: phpMyAdmin Vulnerability Discovered
FYI MySQL devs/admins. Looks like phpMyAdmin 2.11.9.0 and 3.0.0 RC1 have a pretty serious vulnerability. Upgrade today!
Serious vulnerability in phpMyAdmin [Update] - Heise Security
The advisory released by the phpMyAdmin developers stated the problem was that parameters of sort_by were not escaped and an attacker, if they were already logged in, could manipulate this to call the PHP exec function and run arbitrary code. The vulnerability was discovered by Norman Hippert in 3.0.0 RC1 initially, and checking showed that previous versions were also affected.
