phpPgAdmin is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF). The vulnerability is due to insufficient validation of the request source in the “database.php” area of phpPgAdmin. This allows sensitive actions to be performed without proper verification of the request’s origin. A remote attacker can exploit this by tricking a logged-in administrator into visiting a malicious page with a CSRF exploit, enabling them to execute arbitrary system commands on the server.
