Adminer is an open-source database management software that is widely used by users of MySQL, MariaDB, PgSQL, and SQLite. It is designed to be a simple and efficient alternative to other database management tools, providing quick access to databases without the need for complicated installations or configurations. Adminer has gained a significant following in recent years due to its ease of use and powerful feature set.
However, Adminer has recently been found to contain a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability known as CVE-2021-29625. This vulnerability affects versions 4.6.1 to 4.8.0 of the software, and can allow attackers to execute arbitrary code in the context of the affected website.
