CVE-2013-3239

25
FAUCET Score

CVE-2013-3239 describes a remote code execution vulnerability affecting phpMyAdmin versions 3.5.x before 3.5.8 and 4.x before 4.0.0-rc3, specifically when a SaveDir directory is configured. Authenticated attackers can upload export files with double extensions (e.g., .php.sql), tricking the Apache HTTP Server into executing them as code. The vulnerability has a CVSS score of 4.6, indicating medium severity due to high attack complexity and requiring authentication, but potentially allowing partial impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability. While there is no evidence of active exploitation or Metasploit/Nuclei modules, an ExploitDB entry (EDB-25003) exists, and there is minimal community discussion or media coverage.
