Description

The phpMyAdmin development team reports: With a crafted table name it is possible to trigger an XSS attack in the database search page. With a crafted SET value or a crafted search query, it is possible to trigger an XSS attacks in the zoom search page. With a crafted hostname header, it is possible to trigger an XSS attacks in the home page. We consider these vulnerabilities to be non-critical. These vulnerabilities can be triggered only by someone who is logged in to phpMyAdmin, as the usual token protection prevents non-logged-in users from accessing the required pages.
