According to its self-reported version, the phpMyAdmin application hosted on the remote web server is 4.7.x prior to 4.7.7. It is, therefore, affected by a cross-site request forgery (XSRF) vulnerability. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, by deceiving a user to click on a crafted URL, to perform harmful database operations such as deleting records and dropping/truncating tables.

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