According to its self-reported version number, the phpMyAdmin install hosted on the remote web server is 4.0.x prior to 4.0.10.1, 4.1.x prior to 4.1.14.2, or 4.2.x prior to 4.2.6. It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - The 'TABLE_COMMENT' parameter input is not being     validated in the script 'libraries/structure.lib.php'     and could allow cross-site scripting attacks. Note that     this issue affects the 4.2.x branch. (CVE-2014-4954)

  - The 'trigger' parameter input is not being validated in     the script 'libraries/rte/rte_list.lib.php' and could     allow cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2014-4955)

  - The 'table' and 'curr_column_name' parameter inputs are     not being validated in the scripts 'js/functions.js'     and 'js/tbl_structure.js' respectively and could allow     cross-site scripting attacks. (CVE-2014-4986)

  - The script 'server_user_groups.php' contains an error     that could allow a remote attacker to obtain the MySQL     user list and possibly make changes to the application     display. Note this issue only affects the 4.1.x and     4.2.x branches. (CVE-2014-4987)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-201505-03 (phpMyAdmin: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in phpMyAdmin.  Please       review the CVE identifiers referenced below for details.
  Impact :

    A remote authenticated attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to       include and execute arbitrary local files via a crafted parameter, inject       SQL code, or to conduct Cross-Site Scripting attacks.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

The phpMyAdmin development team reports :

Self-XSS due to unescaped HTML output in database structure page.

With a crafted table comment, it is possible to trigger an XSS in database structure page.

Self-XSS due to unescaped HTML output in database triggers page.

When navigating into the database triggers page, it is possible to trigger an XSS with a crafted trigger name.

Multiple XSS in AJAX confirmation messages.

With a crafted column name it is possible to trigger an XSS when dropping the column in table structure page. With a crafted table name it is possible to trigger an XSS when dropping or truncating the table in table operations page.

Access for an unprivileged user to MySQL user list.

An unpriviledged user could view the MySQL user list and manipulate the tabs displayed in phpMyAdmin for them.

Multiple vulnerabilities has been discovered and corrected in phpmyadmin :

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the PMA_getHtmlForActionLinks function in libraries/structure.lib.php in phpMyAdmin 4.2.x before 4.2.6 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted table comment that is improperly handled during construction of a database structure page (CVE-2014-4954).

Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the PMA_TRI_getRowForList function in libraries/rte/rte_list.lib.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.1, 4.1.x before 4.1.14.2, and 4.2.x before 4.2.6 allows remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted trigger name that is improperly handled on the database triggers page (CVE-2014-4955).

Multiple cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerabilities in js/functions.js in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.1, 4.1.x before 4.1.14.2, and 4.2.x before 4.2.6 allow remote authenticated users to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via a crafted (1) table name or (2) column name that is improperly handled during construction of an AJAX confirmation message (CVE-2014-4986).

server_user_groups.php in phpMyAdmin 4.1.x before 4.1.14.2 and 4.2.x before 4.2.6 allows remote authenticated users to bypass intended access restrictions and read the MySQL user list via a viewUsers request (CVE-2014-4987).
