    <p>
    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.
    </p>

  <description>
    <p>
    A defect was found in phpMyAdmin's MIME-based transformation system,
    when used with "external" transformations.
    </p>

  <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 "&gt;=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.6.0_p2"
    # emerge "&gt;=dev-db/phpmyadmin-2.6.0_p2"</code>
  </resolution>
