[Full-disclosure] Re: Advisory 16/2005: phpMyAdmin Local File Inclusion Vulnerability (Stefan Esser)

Hello Maksymilian Arciemowicz,

I suggest, that you actually read advisories before commenting on them.
It is possible to empty $cfg['ThemePath'] from the outside, that is the
whole clue about the exploit.
And this has nothing todo with your original advisory. Beside the fact,
that for the bug you speak about, that indeed still exists, you
additionally need register_globals turned to on.
