[Phpmyadmin-devel] Bug #3881 Escaped html in error message
by Chirayu Chiripal 25 Jul '14

25 Jul '14

Hi, I was able to reproduce this bug #3881 in QA_4_0 but can't reproduce this anymore in QA_4_2, so it seems that it is fixed now (not sure in which version exactly). Can anyone else reproduce this bug on QA_4_2 or master? If no one is able to reproduce this anymore then maybe we can close this ticket [1].

Hi Robert, from my experience, only some specific features will break. I don't think that the phpMyAdmin team has collected a list of these features. For big databases, however, there will be a performance problem, as phpMyAdmin relies extensively on information_schema, whose performance with MySQL < 5.5 is worse. Maybe we can extend phpMyAdmin's 4.0 life (for security fixes). > > Thank you very much for your time already and hope to hear some details :) > > > Greetings, > Robert > -- Marc Delisle | phpMyAdmin

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Should a user be able to remove their own privileges?
by Isaac Bennetch 17 Jul '14

17 Jul '14

Bringing this to phpmyadmin--devel for further discussion. This is specifically related to implementing feature request 1488 "User privilege tab not shown in all relevant cases" [1] On 7/16/14, 4:00 PM, Chirayu Chiripal wrote: > Does it makes sense, to allow a user to revoke some of the global > privileges from himself? I think ideally, we would allow this but display a message warning that it's a bad idea. Something like "You are attempting to remove privileges from the user with which you are currently logged in. This is generally a bad idea and might result in you being unable to log in or change privileges. Are you sure you wish to remove these privileges?" I can't think of a scenario when a user would actually want to do this; but just because it's a bad idea doesn't mean we should prevent the user from doing it, right? Or in this case, is it reasonable to disallow this action? What does everyone else think? 1 - https://sourceforge.net/p/phpmyadmin/feature-requests/1488/

[Phpmyadmin-devel] [Console] Help, about AJAX callback
by Edward Cheng 13 Jul '14

13 Jul '14

Hi, Till now, new console will log browse-generated-queries, but only happend at global AJAX handler, because I add some code in global AJAX handler: if(PMA_console && PMA_console.isEnabled) { PMA_console.ajaxCallback(data); } We can copy code above to everywhere--to every custom ajax response handler--it's terrible, do we have a better solution? Thanks -- Edward Cheng
