Description:
Maksymilian Arciemowicz has discovered a vulnerability in phpMyAdmin, which can be exploited by malicious people to disclose sensitive information.
Input passed to the "subform" array parameter in "libraries/grab_globals.lib.php" isn't properly verified, before it is used to include files. This can be exploited to include arbitrary files from local resources.
The vulnerability has been confirmed in version 2.6.4-pl1. Version 2.6.4 is reportedly also affected.
Solution:
Update to version 2.6.4-pl2.
