An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: It is not confirmed as exploited in the wild, but public exploit code for CVE-2016-5734 exists.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin (Packagist): affected from 4.0.10.0; fixed in 4.0.10.16\n- phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin (Packagist): affected from 4.0.10.0; fixed in 4.0.10.16\n- phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin (Packagist): affected from 4.4.15.0; fixed in 4.4.15.7\n- phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin (Packagist): affected from 4.4.15.0; fixed in 4.4.15.7\n- phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin (Packagist): affected from 4.6.0; fixed in 4.6.3\n- phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin (Packagist): affected from 4.6.0; fixed in 4.6.3\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5734/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5734/index.md)","id":"CVE-2016-5734","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2016-5734/index.md","name":"CVE-2016-5734","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2016-5734","GHSA-rv57-479x-x4qv","UBUNTU-CVE-2016-5734"],"analysis":{"component_type":"web_application","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["code_execution"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"phpMyAdmin","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Remote attackers can execute arbitrary PHP code in phpMyAdmin via crafted strings due to improper handling of preg_replace eval modifiers.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"code_injection"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mitre","cpe":[{"product":"phpmyadmin","vendor":"phpmyadmin"}],"cvss":{"score":9.8,"severity":"critical","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.0/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","version":"3.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-94","name":"Improper Control of Generation of Code"}],"description":"phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.16, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.7, and 4.6.x before 4.6.3 does not properly choose delimiters to prevent use of the preg_replace e (aka eval) modifier, which might allow remote attackers to execute arbitrary PHP code via a crafted string, as demonstrated by the table search-and-replace implementation.","ecosystems":["Packagist"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":1,"first_seen":"2016-06-23","github_poc":3,"max_poc_stars":1,"metasploit":1,"nuclei":0,"refs":[{"date":"2022-09-10T03:12:41Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/miko550/CVE-2016-5734-docker","stars":1,"title":"PhpMyAdmin 4.0.x—4.6.2 Remote Code Execution Vulnerability (CVE-2016-5734)"},{"date":"2016-06-23","kind":"metasploit","ref":"exploit/multi/http/phpmyadmin_null_termination_exec","stars":null,"title":"phpMyAdmin Authenticated Remote Code Execution"},{"date":"2016-07-08T09:43:26Z","kind":"github_poc","ref":"https://github.com/KosukeShimofuji/CVE-2016-5734","stars":0,"title":null},{"date":"2016-07-29","kind":"exploitdb","ref":"40185","stars":null,"title":"phpMyAdmin 4.6.2 -
