Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

phpMyAdmin through 5.2.3 contains a missing re-authentication vulnerability that allows authenticated attackers to remove two-factor authentication by posting the 2fa key to /config/set. Attackers holding a hijacked session can submit key=2fa with a null JSON value to SetConfigController, stripping 2FA so later logins require only the MySQL password.
