# Impact :
***********
* An information exposure is the intentional or unintentional disclosure of information to

an actor that is not explicitly authorized to have access to that information.

* The product stores sensitive information in files or directories that are accessible

to actors outside of the intended control sphere.

* phpMyAdmin is a free software tool written in PHP, intended to handle the administration of

MySQL over the World Wide Web. It can be used to dump a database or a collection of databases

for backup or transfer to another SQL server (not necessarily a MySQL server).

The dump typically contains SQL statements to create the table, populate it, or both.

This file contains an phpMyAdmin SQL dump. This information is highly sensitive

and should not be found on a production system.

Remediation : Restrict access to this file or remove it from the system.
