Welcome to phpMyAdmin 4.7.0, a regular maintenance release containing new features, bug fixes, and a security fix.

A complete list of new features and bugs that have been fixed is available in the ChangeLog file or
changelog.php included with this release.

Notable changes since 4.6.6:

• Fix an issue where $ cfg['Servers'][$ i]['AllowNoPassword'] is ignored (PMASA-2017-8)
• Fix JavaScript errors when using Designer
• Show all databases in dropdown selector, including the current one
• Better defaults when creating a multi-field foreign key
• Improved support for TokuDB
• Improved handling of LoginCookieValidity, this should improve certain cases where users were getting logged out prematurely
• Fix an error that could occur when copying a database (related to pmadb/Configuration Storage metadata)
• Fixed OpenDocument exports
• Fixed alignment of NULL values
• Removed error message about client and server version mismatch
• Compatibility fixes when running under HHVM 3.18
• Fix the version check when curl is incorrectly configured
• Change the default export setting for Excel files; now the default is to include column names in the first row. This is always configurable with $ cfg[‘Export’][‘excel_columns’]
• Log failed authentication attempts to syslog (useful for parsing by fail2ban, for example)
• Add filtering for the database list
• Add table filtering to the database ‘Structure’ tab
• Add support for exporting user settings as a config.inc.php snippet
• Add option to delete settings from browser storage
• Changes to the JSON import and export format to better follow the JSON specification, however this breaks
  compatibility with older versions. See https://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/import_export.html#json
• Support for IPv6 proxies
• Allow more connection parameters for the controluser connection
• Rename ‘Relations’ to ‘Relationships’ in many places as it’s a more correct term
• More documentation for export configuration options
• Remove support for Swekey authentication
• Remove support for old, unsupported versions of Microsoft Internet Explorer
• Removed $ cfg[‘ThemePath’]

Starting with this version, phpMyAdmin uses Composer to manage PHP library dependencies while under development. Users downloading the official source distribution will not notice a difference, however users of the git repository should refer to https://docs.phpmyadmin.net/en/latest/setup.html#installing-from-git for details.

Also beginning with this version, we’ve made some changes to the files available for download. There are now three different packages available: all-languages and english are the same downloads we’ve offered for some time, the former featuring all languages for which we have a reasonable amount of translations and the latter being a smaller English-only download. We have added a source download, which includes the unit test suite, Gettext po files, documentation source, and JavaScript source files; these are omitted from the other packages as most users have no need for them. We have also reduced the number of compression formats available due to low utilization; for each package we have .tar.gz, .tar.xz, and .zip formats available.

There are many more improvements; please refer to the ChangeLog for full details.

As always, downloads are available at https://www.phpmyadmin.net

Welcome to phpMyAdmin 4.0.10.20, a release containing a security fix and a bug fix.

The security fix relates to the possible bypass of $ cfg['Servers'][$ i]['AllowNoPassword'], see PMASA-2017-08.
The bug fix relates to searching a database when the locale is not set ‘en’.

As long as no users are configured with no password or the server is not relying on $ cfg[‘Servers’][$ i][‘AllowNoPassword’] for security protection, this update is not a required upgrade. For more information, you can refer to the ChangeLog file included with this release and the security announcements at https://www.phpmyadmin.net/security/

phpMyAdmin news

The phpMyAdmin team announces the release of versions 4.0.10.17 (security fixes), 4.4.15.8 (security fixes), and 4.6.4 (security and bug fixes).

These release includes many security fixes of various levels of severity. We recommend all users upgrade to this release immediately. For full information on the vulnerabilities fixed and mitigation factors for users who are unable to upgrade, refer to the ChangeLog file included with this release and the security announcements at https://www.phpmyadmin.net/security/.

Aside from the security fixes, bugs have been fixed in version 4.6.4 affecting:

• Create view when no view name specified
• Changing a password
• Fix deleting of users with non-English locales
• Fixed password change on MariaDB without auth plugin
• and more

The phpMyAdmin project is pleased to announce the release of
phpMyAdmin versions 4.6.5 (including bug and security fixes), 4.4.15.9
(security fixes), and 4.0.10.18 (security fixes). We recommend all
users update their phpMyAdmin installations.

Aside from the security improvements, many bugs have been fixed in
version 4.6.5 including:

• Fix for expanding in navigation pane
• Reintroduced a simplified version of PmaAbsoluteUri directive
  (needed with reverse proxies)
• Fix editing of ENUM/SET/DECIMAL field structures
• Improvements to the parser

Please note that this is expected to be the final release of the 4.4
branch, which ended security support on October 1, 2016.

We are particularly grateful for the work of researcher Emanuel
Bronshtein who helped identify many of these flaws.

phpMyAdmin news

We at the phpMyAdmin project are releasing version 4.6.5.1 as a quick fix to two issues caused by yesterday’s 4.6.5 release:

• an issue
  affecting a small number of users using $ cfg['Servers'][$ i]['hide_db'] or $ cfg['Servers'][$ i]['only_db'].

• an issue
  affecting the create table dialog where the partition selection tool was overzealous and made it difficult to create a new table.

There are also minor improvements to the Czech language file and an improved error message when the mbstring extension is missing.

Users of 4.6.5 who are not affected by these bugs need not upgrade to 4.6.5.1.

Downloads are available from https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads

Welcome to phpMyAdmin version 4.6.5.2, a patch-level release which fixes an issue with exporting certain character sequences including a backslash (\), such as \r\n.

Because this issue #12765 affects export functionality, we do recommend updating when possible.

As always, downloads are available at https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads/

Previously fixed in 4.6.5.1:

• an issue affecting a small number of users using $ cfg[‘Servers’][$ i][‘hide_db’] or $ cfg[‘Servers’][$ i][‘only_db’].
• an issue affecting the create table dialog where the partition selection tool was overzealous and made it difficult to create a new table.

Highlights from the 4.6.5 release:

• Fix for expanding in navigation pane
• Reintroduced a simplified version of PmaAbsoluteUri directive (needed with reverse proxies)
• Fix editing of ENUM/SET/DECIMAL field structures
• Improvements to the parser
