Several vulnerabilities were found in package phpmyadmin.

CVE-2019-19617

phpMyAdmin does not escape certain Git information, related to libraries/classes/Display/GitRevision.php and libraries/classes /Footer.php.

CVE-2020-26934

A vulnerability was discovered where an attacker can cause an XSS attack through the transformation feature.

If an attacker sends a crafted link to the victim with the malicious JavaScript, when the victim clicks on the link, the JavaScript will run and complete the instructions made by the attacker.

CVE-2020-26935

A SQL injection vulnerability was discovered in how phpMyAdmin processes SQL statements in the search feature. An attacker could use this flaw to inject malicious SQL in to a query.

For Debian 9 stretch, these problems have been fixed in version 4.6.6-4+deb9u2.

We recommend that you upgrade your phpmyadmin packages.

For the detailed security status of phpmyadmin please refer to its security tracker page at:
