Ideas for how to break through a phpMyAdmin login?

[C4T5]

I found a potential foothold on a site in the form of a phpMyAdmin login page... does anyone have any ideas on how I could break past this login? Thank you in advance.

Well I guess bruteforce is always an option, works better if you already have a username to work with.

Maybe is vulnerable
Or just bruteforce that, the easiest way

I don't know a username for certain but I can assume root is valid. phpMyAdmin uses SQL right? Is there some way to exploit that?

Use some vuln scanners
Use Google to find, there are paid and free ones

SQL, right

well yes it uses SQL and by using SQL injection you can get into the DB without using the login screen (if you find an injectable point).
But the login screen itself isn't injectable. You could try a list of widely used username/pass combinations i.e. for bruteforce.

i'd say phish the target.

You can :
- Make a phishing to the target
- Bruteforce via Burp Suite / Hydra
- Find an exploit on exploit-db if you have the right version
- Search through differents servers of the target and pivoting
- Try custom password list with the name of the company / client - zip code, etc ..
