multiple vulnerabilities.");

"According to its self-reported version number, the phpMyAdmin
application hosted on the remote web server is 4.0.x prior to
4.0.10.7, 4.1.x prior to 4.1.14.8, or 4.2.x prior to 4.2.13.1. It is,
therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw exists in handling overly long passwords. It is
    possible that a remote attacker can cause a denial of
    service by using a long password. (CVE-2014-9218)

  - A cross-site scripting flaw exists due to the improper
    validation of URLs when handling redirection. A remote
    attacker, by using a specially crafted request, could
    execute arbitrary script code within the trust
    relationship of the browser and server. Note that this
    applies only to versions 4.2.x prior to 4.2.13.1.
    (CVE-2014-9219)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead
relied only on the application's self-reported version number.");
