According to its self-reported version, the phpMyAdmin application hosted on the remote web server is 4.0.x prior to 4.0.10.12, 4.4.x prior to 4.4.15.2, or 4.5.x prior to 4.5.3.1. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure vulnerability:

  • libraries/config/messages.inc.php in phpMyAdmin 4.0.x before 4.0.10.12, 4.4.x before 4.4.15.2, and 4.5.x before 4.5.3.1 allows remote attackers to obtain sensitive information via a crafted request, which reveals the full path in an error message. (CVE-2015-8669)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
