Description Jan Lieskovsky 2011-07-25 10:57:49 UTC 
A local file inclusion flaw was found in the way phpMyAdmin, the MySQL over WWW administration tool, performed particular SQL query execution. A local attacker could use this flaw to obtain sensitive information via specially-crafted MIME-type transformation parameter.
