    Summary: Updated phpmyadmin packages fix security vulnerability

    Details: Due to an XSRF/CSRF vulnerability in phpMyAdmin before 4.7.7, by deceiving a user to click on a crafted URL, it is possible to perform harmful database operations such as deleting records, dropping/truncating tables etc (PMASA-2017-9). The phpmyadmin package has been updated to version 4.7.7 to fix this issue and other bugs. Note that phpMyAdmin 4.4.x in Mageia 5 is no longer supported. Users of the phpmyadmin package should upgrade to Mageia 6.
