low Nessus Plugin ID 66814

Synopsis

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

Description

The phpMyAdmin development team reports :

When creating a view with a crafted name and an incorrect CREATE statement, it is possible to trigger an XSS.

This vulnerability can be triggered only by someone who logged in to phpMyAdmin, as the usual token protection prevents non-logged-in users from accessing the required form.

Solution

Update the affected package.
