Details

An issue was discovered in phpMyAdmin before 4.8.5. When the AllowArbitraryServer configuration setting is set to true, with the use of a rogue MySQL server, an attacker can read any file on the server that the web server's user can access. This is related to the mysql.allowlocalinfile PHP configuration, and the inadvertent ignoring of "options(MYSQLIOPTLOCAL_INFILE" calls.
