phpMyAdmin is a tool written in PHP intended to handle the
|
|
administration of MySQL databases from a web-browser. phpMyAdmin uses a
|
|
pma MySQL user to control the linked-tables infrastructure. The SQL
|
|
install script sets the initial password for the pma user.

|
The phpMyAdmin installation process leaves the SQL install script with
|
|
insecure permissions.

<impact type="normal">
|
|
<p>
|
|
A local attacker could exploit this vulnerability to obtain the initial
|
|
phpMyAdmin password and from there obtain information about databases
|
|
accessible by phpMyAdmin.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</impact>
|
|
<workaround>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Change the password for the phpMyAdmin MySQL user (pma):
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
mysql -u root -p
|
|
SET PASSWORD FOR 'pma'@'localhost' = PASSWORD('MyNewPassword');</code>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Update your phpMyAdmin config.inc.php:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['controlpass'] = 'MyNewPassword';</code>
|
|
</workaround>
|
|
<resolution>
|
|
<p>
|
|
All phpMyAdmin users should change password for the pma user as
|
|
described above and upgrade to the latest version:
|
|
</p>
|
|
<code>
|
|
# emerge --sync
|
|
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.6.2-r1"</code>
|
