According to its self-reported version number, the phpMyAdmin application hosted on the remote web server is prior to 4.8.3. It is, therefore, affected by a cross-site Scripting vulnerability.

Note that Nessus has not attempted to exploit these issues but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
