According to its self-reported version, the phpMyAdmin application hosted on the remote web server is 4.9.x prior to 4.9.6 or 5.0.x prior to 5.0.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

  • phpMyAdmin before 4.9.6 and 5.x before 5.0.3 allows XSS through the transformation feature via a crafted link. (CVE-2020-26934)

  • An issue was discovered in SearchController in phpMyAdmin before 4.9.6 and 5.x before 5.0.3. 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. (CVE-2020-26935)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
