[Phpmyadmin-news] phpMyAdmin 2.6.1-pl3 is released
by Marc Delisle 06 Mar '05

06 Mar '05

Hi, Here is patch level 3 for phpMyAdmin 2.6.1. It fixes a problem introduced in -pl2: can no longer update a field whose name starts with "str". Also included, a fix for the privileges management module: escaping of the "_" character was not properly done, giving a wildcard privilege when editing db-specific privileges with phpMyAdmin. Details at http://www.phpmyadmin.net Marc Delisle, for the team

[Phpmyadmin-news] phpMyAdmin 2.6.1-pl1 is released
by Marc Delisle 24 Feb '05

24 Feb '05

Hi, Patch level 1 of phpMyAdmin 2.6.1 fixes some security problems, along with a few other bugs. A more formal security alert will be posted when ready. Meanwhile, the phpMyAdmin development team strongly advises an upgrade to phpMyAdmin 2.6.1-pl1, and to also apply the following security measures on your PHP installation (if feasible) by modifying your php.ini configuration file (or virtual host settings): - set register_globals to Off - set display_errors to Off - set log_errors to On - define the path to your error log with the error_log directive Both settings are recommended in the PHP documentation on a server running in production. For example: http://www.php.net/manual/en/security.errors.php However, we suggest you review the impact of those changes before applying them. Meanwhile, work continues on the development version 2.6.2. Marc Delisle, for the team.

Almost four months have passed since 2.6.0, although three patch releases were made to take care of several security alerts we received. In 2.6.1 there are two more security fixes. As a consequence of one of these fixes, if you want to use MIME-based external transformations you have to use a PHP version of 4.3.0 or later. A major speed improvement for users of the "cookie" authentication type is included starting from 2.6.1-rc1, but you must be running on a Web server with the mcrypt PHP module. Another improvement worth mentionning, which relates to a new feature offered on MySQL 4.1.2+: on multi-user installations, the control user no longer needs to have any rights to the "mysql" db. It is now only used to access the linked-tables infrastructure (pmadb). phpMyAdmin is a web administration tool for MySQL databases, intended to handle a whole database server as well as a single database. Over the years, it has become the most popular GUI for MySQL and is downloaded about 6,000 times a day, according to SourceForge.net. The highlights of this release in detail: Highlights ---------- Upgrade note: * Using external transformations now requires PHP > 4.3.0 Improvements: * Major speed improvement (if using auth_type = 'cookie') by using the mcrypt library (if available on your system) * Improved wording when adding fields * (mysqli) support for compressed protocol and CLIENT_LOCAL_FILES * Clickable active server in left panel * Improved ANSI mode in various scripts * Hints added (light bulb) * Database copying * New Database Operations tab: note that many db operations have been moved here, including the PDF schema generation dialog * Optional simple blocking of root login * Binary log display * Index creating on multiple fields * Improved displaying of messages below tabs * Handle MySQL "duplicate entry" error * User list: top index for user initials * Support for OLD_PASSWORD() function * Under MySQL 4.1.2+, we no longer need the control user to have rights over the "mysql" db * New checks for common index problems * Upload: show filename of uploaded file * Improved page selector when browsing foreign table values * Improved handling of InnoDB constraints * Speed up display for left panel with PMA infrastructure is used * New message "no activity..." * Support of keywords NAMES and VIEW * Can now edit next entry (based on the next numeric primary key) * New warnings related to the use of mbstring * Improved navigation in calendar * Export: selectable SQL compatibility * PDF schema: added support for output in UTF-8 Fixes: * Security fix against some crafted data allowing arbitrary program execution (if PHP safe mode is off and external transformations are activated) * Security fix against a possible attack on read_dump.php (if PHP safe mode is off) * Incorrect appending of LIMIT to queries * Export: insufficient space to save * Export: convert end of line chars we get from MySQL * Wrong double column sort (with JOIN) * Export: (mysqli) some fields wrongly exported as BINARY * Illegal mix of collations for converted strings * Wrong tabbing from value to value * Allow work on temporary tables * UNIX_TIMESTAMP and optional parameter * Export: improved zip headers * 0 as field name caused problems * Incorrect handling when no default server defined * Export: Use just for SQL exports * Comments and multi-table selects * Security: deactivate the list of programs for external transformations * Incorrect handling of OFFSET * Better displaying of table-specific privileges for a db containing an escaped character * Since 2.6.0-pl3, connecting on a non-standard HTTP port did not work * Do not catch Alt and Shift keys * Do not duplicate constraints when exporting multiple databases * Illegal length for LONGTEXT * Moving/copying a table: problem with constraints copying * Reloading frame on multiple queries * Collations on non-text fields * Use standardized MIME type for gzip/bzip2 * Problem with field names like 000 * Timestamps problem under MySQL 4.1.x * Support Option key for field moving in Safari * Error when adding a FLOAT field under MySQL 4.1.x * Headers sent on invalid login * Wrong treatment of MySQL error 1060 * Problem in bookmark logic when using MySQLi Detailed list of changes since version 2.2.0 is available under http://www.phpmyadmin.net/ChangeLog.txt Availability ------------ This software is available under the GNU General Public License V2.0.

[Phpmyadmin-news] phpMyAdmin security alert (PMASA-2004-4)
by Marc Delisle 13 Dec '04

13 Dec '04

phpMyAdmin security announcement _________________________________________________________________ Announcement-ID: PMASA-2004-4 Date: 2004-12-13 Summary: Two vulnerabilities were found in phpMyAdmin, that may allow command execution and file disclosure. Description: We received a security advisory from Nicolas Gregoire (exaprobe.com) about those vulnerabilities and we wish to thank him for his work. Both vulnerabilites can be exploited only on a web server where PHP safe mode is off. The vulnerabilities apply to those points: 1. Command execution: since phpMyAdmin 2.6.0-pl2, on a system where external MIME-based transformations are activated, an attacker can put into MySQL data an offensive value that starts a shell command when browsed. 2. File disclosure: on systems where the UploadDir mecanism is active, read_dump.php can be called with a crafted form; using the fact that the sql_localfile variable is not sanitized can lead to a file disclosure. Severity: As any of those vulnerabilites can be used for command execution or file disclosure, we consider them to be serious (on servers where PHP safe mode is off). Affected versions: Command execution problem: since phpMyAdmin 2.6.0-pl2. File disclosure problem: vulnerable since at least version 2.4.0. Unaffected versions: CVS HEAD has been fixed. The 2.6.1-rc1 release. Solution: We strongly advise everyone to upgrade to version 2.6.1 when released. Meanwhile, setting PHP safe mode to on avoids those problems. If not feasible, you should deactivate MIME-based external transformations and the UploadDir mecanism. Reference: http://www.exaprobe.com/labs/advisories/esa-2004-1213.html For further information and in case of questions, please contact the phpMyAdmin team. Our website is http://www.phpmyadmin.net/.
