+ phpMyAdmin is a popular web-based MySQL administration tool written in
+ PHP. It allows users to browse and administer a MySQL database from a
+ web-browser. Transformations are a phpMyAdmin feature allowing plug-ins
+ to rewrite the contents of any column seen in phpMyAdmin's Browsing
+ mode, including using insertion of PHP or JavaScript code.

+ <description>

+ A defect was found in phpMyAdmin's MIME-based transformation system,
+ when used with "external" transformations.

+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability to execute arbitrary
+ commands on the server with the rights of the HTTP server user.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ Enabling PHP safe mode ("safe_mode = On" in php.ini) may serve as a
+ temporary workaround.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All phpMyAdmin users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge sync
+
+ # emerge -pv &quot;&gt;=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.6.0_p2&quot;
+ # emerge &quot;&gt;=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.6.0_p2&quot;</code>
+ </resolution>
