Description

libraries/session.inc.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.13, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.3, and 4.5.x before 4.5.4 does not properly generate CSRF token values, which allows remote attackers to bypass intended access restrictions by predicting a value.

Solution(s)

  • phpmyadmin-upgrade-latest
