Package : phpmyadmin
Vulnerability : insufficient input sanitising
Problem type : remote
Debian-specific: no
CVE Id(s) : CVE-2008-4326

Masako Oono discovered that phpMyAdmin, a web-based administration
interface for MySQL, insufficiently sanitises input allowing a
remote attacker to gather sensitive data through cross site scripting,
provided that the user uses the Internet Explorer web browser.

This update also fixes a regression introduced in DSA 1641, that
broke changing of the language and encoding in the login screen.

For the stable distribution (etch), these problems have been fixed in
version 4:2.9.1.1-9.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 4:2.11.8.1-3.

We recommend that you upgrade your phpmyadmin package.

Upgrade instructions
- --------------------

wget url
will fetch the file for you
dpkg -i file.deb
will install the referenced file.

If you are using the apt-get package manager, use the line for
sources.list as given below:

apt-get update
will update the internal database
apt-get upgrade
will install corrected packages

You may use an automated update by adding the resources from the
footer to the proper configuration.
