Package: phpmyadmin
Version: 3:2.6.1-1
Severity: critical
Tags: security

New upstream version addresses several file include and XSS issues; see
http://securityreason.com/adv/phpmyadmin_2.6.1_remote_file_inclusion_and_xss_cxib8o3.4.txt

Also it may be worth considering switching register_globals to Off in
/usr/share/phpmyadmin/.htaccess - it should have been safe for phpmyadmin for
1-2 years already. This would also have stopped some of the XSS issues that
popped up this time..
