    (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."
