Upgrade MariaDB to 10.11.11 and phpMyAdmin to 5.2.2 #7419
Description
Brief description
We request to upgrade the database stack components — MariaDB and phpMyAdmin — to the following versions:
MariaDB 10.11.11
phpMyAdmin 5.2.2
WHY: These upgrades include important security patches, performance enhancements, and compatibility fixes, ensuring alignment with current upstream standards.
PURPOSE: Improve database reliability, security posture, and compatibility with modern SQL features and management interfaces.
Proposed solution
Update the MariaDB package (or Docker image) to version 10.11.11.
Update the phpMyAdmin package (or Docker image) to version 5.2.2.
Alternative solutions
Maintaining the current versions introduces risks of security vulnerabilities, reduced performance, and incompatibility with other updated services. Manual patching is more complex and error-prone in the long term.
Additional context
MariaDB 10.11 is a long-term support (LTS) release stream, and 10.11.11 includes recent fixes.
phpMyAdmin 5.2.2 improves support for newer PHP versions and adds several security and usability enhancements.
These components are critical for database operations and administration in both development and production environments.
