Description

phpMyAdmin instances accessible without authentication allow unauthorized users to access database management interfaces, potentially leading to data exposure, modification, or deletion.

How we test: We test for unauthenticated access to phpMyAdmin by attempting to access the dashboard without authentication and analyzing responses to detect if the database management interface is accessible without proper authorization.
