CVE-2016-5739 is a vulnerability in phpMyAdmin versions 4.0.x, 4.4.x, and 4.6.x that allows remote attackers to conduct Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attacks. This is due to the Transformation implementation failing to use the no-referrer Content Security Policy (CSP), enabling attackers to read authentication tokens from Referer headers. Rated as high severity with a CVSS score of 7.5, it has a network attack vector and low attack complexity, potentially leading to high confidentiality impact. There is no evidence of active exploitation, publicly available exploit code, or significant community discussion surrounding this vulnerability.
