*** This bug is a security vulnerability ***

Public security bug reported:

in Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS, Release: 10.04 following phpmyadmin package is
used: 4:3.3.2-1, published on 2010-04-16

The maintainers of phpmyadmin report: 
"[...]Versions 3.4.3.2 and 3.3.10.3 of phpMyAdmin close a total of four 
security holes in the open source database administration tool. According to 
the phpMyAdmin developers, the security releases address two "critical" 
vulnerabilities that could lead to possible session manipulation in swekey 
authentication or remote code execution. A "serious" bug that could allow an 
attacker to perform a local file inclusion and a "minor" cross-site scripting 
(XSS) hole have also been fixed.
Versions 3.4.3.1 and earlier are affected. The 2.11.x branch, which reached its 
end of life earlier this month, is not affected by the session manipulation 
hole, but may be affected by the others. All users are advised to update to the 
latest versions. Alternatively, users can apply the provided patches.[...]"

The new package should be merged.
