Secunia has issued a moderately critical security advisory on popular database managment tool phpmyadmin.

The advisory phpMyAdmin Local File Inclusion and Cross-Site Scripting warns that the most serious flaws could lead to arbitrary program execution if PHP safe mode is off and external transformations are activated.

Users of phpmyadmin are advised to update to 2.6.1-pl2, available here from SourceForge: Project: phpMyAdmin: File List
