setup/lib/ConfigGenerator.class.php in phpMyAdmin 3.x before 3.3.10.2 and 3.4.x before 3.4.3.1 does not properly restrict the presence of comment closing delimiters, which allows remote attackers to conduct static code injection attacks by leveraging the ability to modify the SESSION superglobal array.

Security readout for executives and security teams

CVE-2011-2506 is an old phpMyAdmin configuration-generation flaw. Affected phpMyAdmin 3.x releases could allow attacker-controlled session data to be written as code, potentially leading to remote code execution if the vulnerable setup path is reachable or otherwise abused. Exposure is most likely on legacy systems still running vulnerable phpMyAdmin 3.3.x or 3.4.x builds, especially where phpMyAdmin setup functionality is present on web-accessible hosts. Bundled or distribution-packaged copies should also be checked. Prioritize remediation for any reachable legacy phpMyAdmin instance. This is a dated vulnerability, but the business risk remains high where old administrative tooling is exposed because compromise could affect database administration hosts. Mitigation focus: Upgrade phpMyAdmin to 3.3.10.2, 3.4.3.1, or later supported versions.; Remove or restrict access to legacy phpMyAdmin setup functionality.; Check operating system and application vendor advisories for packaged updates..
