+ <background>
+ <p>phpMyAdmin is a web-based management tool for MySQL databases.</p>
+ </background>
+ <description>
+ <p>A vulnerability was discovered where the restrictions caused by
+ “$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’] = false” are bypassed
+ under certain PHP versions. This can lead compromised user accounts, who
+ have no passwords set, even if the administrator has set
+ “$cfg[‘Servers’][$i][‘AllowNoPassword’]” to false (which is
+ the default).
+ </p>
+
+ <p>This behavior depends on the PHP version used (it seems PHP 5 is
+ affected, while PHP 7.0 is not).
+ </p>
+ </description>
+ <impact type="normal">
+ <p>A remote attacker, who only needs to know the username, could bypass
+ security restrictions and access phpMyAdmin.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>Set a password for all users.</p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>All phpMyAdmin 4.0.x users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose
+ "&gt;=dev-db/phpmyadmin-4.0.10.20:4.0.10.20"
+ </code>
+
+ <p>All other phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version:</p>
+
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=dev-db/phpmyadmin-4.7.0:4.7.0"
+ </code>
