"The remote host is affected by the vulnerability described in GLSA-200503-07
(phpMyAdmin: Multiple vulnerabilities)

    phpMyAdmin contains several security issues:
    Maksymilian Arciemowicz has discovered multiple variable injection
    vulnerabilities that can be exploited through '$cfg' and 'GLOBALS'
    variables and localized strings
    It is possible to force phpMyAdmin to disclose information in error
    messages
    Failure to correctly escape special characters
  
Impact :

    By sending a specially crafted request, an attacker can include and
    execute arbitrary PHP code or cause path information disclosure.
    Furthermore the XSS issue allows an attacker to inject malicious script
    code, potentially compromising the victim's browser. Lastly the
    improper escaping of special characters results in unintended privilege
    settings for MySQL.
  
Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time."

By calling some scripts that are part of phpMyAdmin in an unexpected

Mitigation factor: This path disclosure is possible on servers where
the recommended setting of the PHP configuration directive
display_errors is set to on, which is against the recommendations
given in the PHP manual."
