Package: phpmyadmin
Version: 4:2.9.1.1-3
Severity: wishlist

Heya,

in

phpmyadmin/libraries/Config.class.php
line 377 and 380

phpmyadmin uses eval to evaluate the contents of a
config file. There're several reasons to avoid this:
 * eval is evil, especially in languages like php
 * there're enough ways to read a config file without using eval
   (yes, eval makes things simple - and too often pretty bad)
 * it's the last web application that stops me from adding
   suhosin.executor.disable_eval = On
   to my php config.

Would be great if there would be a better implementation in the next
version, in favour of better security.


Thanks a lot,


Bernd
