PhpMyAdmin before 2.9.1.1 allows remote attackers to obtain the full server path via direct requests to (a) scripts/check_lang.php and (b) themes/darkblue_orange/layout.inc.php; and via the (1) lang[], (2) target[], (3) db[], (4) goto[], (5) table[], and (6) tbl_group[] array arguments to (c) index.php, and the (7) back[] argument to (d) sql.php; and an invalid (8) sort_by parameter to (e) server_databases.php and (9) db parameter to (f) db_printview.php.

Security readout for executives and security teams

This flaw lets remote users make old phpMyAdmin installations reveal the server's full filesystem path. By itself, that is information disclosure, not confirmed code execution. The business risk is that exposed administrative tooling leaks details attackers can use to plan follow-on attacks. Exposure is likely only where phpMyAdmin before 2.9.1.1 remains deployed, especially if reachable from the Internet or broad internal networks. Modern supported phpMyAdmin deployments are unlikely to be affected by this specific 2006 issue. Prioritize as moderate where legacy phpMyAdmin is exposed. This is unlikely to be an emergency by itself, but exposed admin tooling plus path leakage increases attacker reconnaissance value and should be cleaned up promptly. Mitigation focus: Upgrade phpMyAdmin to 2.9.1.1 or a currently supported release.; Restrict phpMyAdmin access to trusted administrators and networks.; Remove unused or forgotten phpMyAdmin installations..
