CVE-2016-9847 -- phpmyadminID: oval:org.secpod.oval:def:1901521 | Date: (C)2019-03-05 (M)2023-12-20 |
Class: VULNERABILITY | Family: unix |
An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin. When the user does not specify a blowfish_secret key for encrypting cookies, phpMyAdmin generates one at runtime. A vulnerability was reported where the way this value is created uses a weak algorithm. This could allow an attacker to determine the user"s blowfish_secret and potentially decrypt their cookies. All 4.6.x versions , 4.4.x versions , and 4.0.x versions are affected.
