You have discovered dangerous security bugs in phpMyAdmin and you don't want to wait until phpMyAdmin is updated in Kloxo? I just decided to write this instruction to help some that might need it.

To do this you need ssh root access to your Kloxo server. If you have slaves you need to repeat the procedure on each slave.

  • Download the latest version of phpMyAdmin
    cd /usr/local/lxlabs/kloxo/httpdocs/thirdparty
wget http://kent.dl.sourceforge.net/project/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin/3.4.0/phpMyAdmin-3.4.0-all-languages.tar.gz

  • Unpack it
    tar xvfz phpMyAdmin-3.4.0-all-languages.tar.gz
rm -f phpMyAdmin-3.4.0-all-languages.tar.gz
  • copy the config file over
    cp phpMyAdmin/config.inc.php phpMyAdmin-3.4.0-all-languages
  • rename the old folder and the new folder
    mv phpMyAdmin phpMyAdmin.old
mv phpMyAdmin-3.4.0-all-languages phpMyAdmin
  • change the owner of the new folder
    chown -R lxlabs phpMyAdmin


Please note that the old phpMyAdmin is not deleted and in case something fails you can recover it by renaming the folders back:
mv phpMyAdmin phpMyAdmin-3.4.0-all-languages
mv phpMyAdmin.old phpMyAdmin


Also note that this instruction is only for the present recommended version of phpMyAdmin. With later versions you will have to update the version numbers in the paths.

Simply, because I don't have to rights to do so.

Sometimes its worth to wait a few days....
3.4.1 released yesterday.

Also, thirdparty software don't have to wait for a new Kloxo release if no config files changes are needed. Thirdparty software can be released whenever it is needed and you get it with upcp/cleanup script.
