DESCRIPTION:
Some vulnerabilities have been reported in phpMyAdmin, which can be
exploited by malicious users to disclose sensitive information and by
malicious users and malicious people to compromise a vulnerable
system.

1) An error within the "Swekey_login()" function in
libraries/auth/swekey/swekey.auth.lib.php can be exploited to
overwrite session variables and e.g. inject and execute arbitrary PHP
code.

2) Input passed to the "PMA_createTargetTables()" function in
libraries/server_synchronize.lib.php is not properly sanitised before
calling the "preg_replace()" function with the "e" modifier. This can
be exploited to execute arbitrary PHP code via URL-encoded NULL
bytes.

3) Input passed to the "PMA_displayTableBody()" function in
libraries/display_tbl.lib.php is not properly sanitised before being
used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary
files from local resources via directory traversal sequences.

NOTE: A weakness in setup scripts, which could lead to arbitrary PHP
code injection if session variables are overwritten has also been
reported.

The vulnerabilities are reported in versions prior to 3.3.10.2 and
3.4.3.1.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 3.3.10.2 or 3.4.3.1.

PROVIDED AND/OR DISCOVERED BY:
The vendor credits Frans Pehrson, Xxor AB.
