Several vulnerabilities have been fixed in phpMyAdmin, the web-based
MySQL administration interface.

  • CVE-2016-1927
    The suggestPassword function relied on a non-secure random number
    generator which makes it easier for remote attackers to guess
    generated passwords via a brute-force approach.
  • CVE-2016-2039
    CSRF token values were generated by a non-secure random number
    generator, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access
    restrictions by predicting a value.
  • CVE-2016-2040
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow remote
    authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-2041
    phpMyAdmin does not use a constant-time algorithm for comparing
    CSRF tokens, which makes it easier for remote attackers to bypass
    intended access restrictions by measuring time differences.
  • CVE-2016-2560
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-2561
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-5099
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-5701
    For installations running on plain HTTP, phpMyAdmin allows remote
    attackers to conduct BBCode injection attacks against HTTP sessions
    via a crafted URI.
  • CVE-2016-5705
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-5706
    phpMyAdmin allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service
    (resource consumption) via a large array in the scripts parameter.
  • CVE-2016-5731
    A cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability allows remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-5733
    Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities allow remote
    attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML.
  • CVE-2016-5739
    A specially crafted Transformation could leak information which
    a remote attacker could use to perform cross site request forgeries.

For the stable distribution (jessie), these problems have been fixed in
version 4:4.2.12-2+deb8u2.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 4:4.6.3-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your phpmyadmin packages.
