DESCRIPTION:
Omer Singer has discovered a vulnerability in phpMyAdmin, which can
be exploited by malicious people to conduct cross-site scripting
attacks.

Input passed in the URL to server_status.php is not properly
sanitised before being returned to the user. This can be exploited to
execute arbitrary HTML and script code in a user's browser session in
context of an affected site.

Successful exploitation requires that the target user has valid user
credentials.

NOTE: Some other potential cross-site scripting problems have also
been fixed by the vendor.

The vulnerability is confirmed in version 2.11.1.1. Prior versions
may also be affected.

SOLUTION:
Update to version 2.11.1.2.
