SCA: security update for adminneo-org/adminneo (GHSA-jm85-8cpp-9cjc)
high Tenable Cloud Security Plugin ID 478027
Description
There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:- AdminNeo is a full-featured database management tool written in PHP. From 4.6.2 until 5.5.0, the
unauthenticated `?script=version` endpoint accepts POST data without origin, CSRF or parameter-type
validation. A `version[]` parameter becomes a PHP array that `bootstrap.inc.php` serializes into the
shared `adminneo.version` cache. On later page loads, `design.inc.php` passes that cached value to
`cookie()` and `rawurlencode()`, causing a `TypeError` rather than encoding a version string. A remote
attacker can make the instance return HTTP 500 to all users for the cache's twenty-four-hour lifetime or
until the poisoned cache is removed. Exploitation requires the web server to be able to write that shared
cache; making it unwritable is an interim workaround. The issue retains the underlying type-validation
defect reported previously in Adminer despite changes to AdminNeo's version-checking flow. This issue is
fixed in version 5.5.0. (CVE-2026-59978)
Solution
Update the adminneo-org/adminneo library and its related packages to version 5.5.0 or later.See Also
