phpMyAdmin is a popular web based tool for MySQL administration and it is not
part of PHP.
Like any other admin tool, especially web based ones, if you install it and
don't keep it secure and up to date, you reap what you sow.
As for "persistent attempts", there are tools out there that will note such
things and automatically block further attempts.
None of this of course has anything to do with PHP other than phpMyAdmin
was written in PHP.
