| Detailed Description |
The version of phpMyAdmin on the remote host is 3.4.x prior to 3.4.5. This version is affected by multiple cross-site scripting vulnerabilities:
- The data used in the row content display after inline editing is not properly sanitized before it is passed back to the browser.
- The data passed in as table, column, and index names is not properly sanitized before it is passed back to the browser.
A remote attacker may use these issues to cause arbitrary code to be executed in a user's browser, to steal authentication cookies and/or to launch other types of attacks.
* Note: This check solely relied on the version number of the remote phpMyAdmin software to assess this vulnerability, so this might be a false positive.
