Full path disclosure vulnerabilities.
By calling some scripts that are part of phpMyAdmin in an unexpected way, it is possible to trigger phpMyAdmin to display a PHP error message which contains the full path of the directory where phpMyAdmin is installed.
We consider these vulnerabilities to be non critical.
This path disclosure is possible on servers where the recommended setting of the PHP configuration directive display_errors is set to on, which is against the recommendations given in the PHP manual.
Versions 3.5.x (prior to 3.5.8.2) and 4.0.x (prior to 4.0.4.2) are affected.
Upgrade to phpMyAdmin 3.5.8.2 or 4.0.4.2 or newer or apply the patches listed below.
Thanks to Emanuel Bronshtein for reporting these issues.
