Description

phpMyAdmin contains a flaw that allows a remote cross site scripting attack. This flaw exists because the application does not validate 'unlim_num_rows', 'sql_query' and 'pos_parameter' variables upon submission to the tbl_export.php script, 'session_max_rows' and 'pos_parameter' variables upon submission to the sql.php script, 'username' variable upon submission to the server_privileges.php script and 'sql_query' variable upon submission to the main.php script. This could allow a user to create a specially crafted URL that would execute arbitrary code in a user's browser within the trust relationship between the browser and the server, leading to a loss of integrity.
