Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing a security-related update.

Description

A phpMyAdmin security announcement reports :

File disclosure: on systems where the UploadDir mecanism is active, read_dump.php can be called with a crafted form; using the fact that the sql_localfile variable is not sanitized can lead to a file disclosure.
