<description>
|
||
<p>A vulnerability was discovered where the restrictions caused by
|
||
“$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’] = false” are bypassed
|
||
under certain PHP versions. This can lead compromised user accounts, who
|
||
have no passwords set, even if the administrator has set
|
||
“$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’]” to false (which is
|
||
the default).
|
||
</p>
|
||
|
||
<p>This behavior depends on the PHP version used (it seems PHP 5 is
|
||
affected, while PHP 7.0 is not).

<impact type="normal">
|
||
<p>A remote attacker, who only needs to know the username, could bypass
|
||
security restrictions and access phpMyAdmin.
|
||
</p>
|
||
</impact>
|
||
<workaround>
|
||
<p>Set a password for all users.</p>
|
||
</workaround>
|
||
<resolution>
|
||
<p>All phpMyAdmin 4.0.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
||
|
||
<code>
|
||
# emerge --sync
|
||
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
|
||
">=dev-db/phpmyadmin-4.0.10.20:4.0.10.20"
|
||
</code>
|
||
|
||
<p>All other phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
|
||
|
||
<code>
|
||
# emerge --sync
|
||
# emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose ">=dev-db/phpmyadmin-4.7.0:4.7.0"
|
||
</code>
