How to fix?

Upgrade phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin to version 4.9.0 or higher.

Overview

phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin is a web interface for MySQL and MariaDB.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Cross-site Request Forgery (CSRF). The attacker can trick the user, for instance through a broken <img> tag pointing at the victim's phpMyAdmin database, and the attacker can potentially deliver a payload (such as a specific INSERT or DELETE statement) to the victim. Only the 'cookie' auth_type is affected; users can temporary use phpMyAdmin's http authentication as a workaround.
