Code: [Select]

cd /usr/local/cwpsrv/var/services

than i changed the pma name to pma2018

Code: [Select]

mv pma pma2018
than i download the last version

Code: [Select]

wget https://www.phpmyadmin.net/downloads/phpMyAdmin-latest-all-languages.zip
unzip phpMyAdmin-latest-all-languages.zip

and i changed the name of phpmyadmin-4.8.( you complete the name of the directory ) to pma

Code: [Select]

mv phpmyadmin-4.8.4( you complete the name of the directory ) pma

sh /scripts/restart_cwpsrv
csf -r

if i did right thing please share it with me/us, and if i did something wrong please let me/us know here to correct the wrong one



thanks

Never keep an old and/or vulnerable version of pma on the webserver, visible to the web.
Or remove it, or move it to an area not reachable by the web.
Harassing old versions of phpMyAdmin, in searching for flaws/vulnerabilities, is the most common access on the web.

So, I suggest you replace:

Code: [Select]

mv pma pma2018

by:

Code: [Select]

mv pma ~/pma2018

thank you very much
im to happy to see someone give me advice
appreciated
ill now do that
