You can try with uploading a shell with phpmyadmin, then backconnecting > local root it > drop shadow file > crack it > got root pass.

Search on youtube how to put up a shell trough phpmyadmin not that hard, then search another example of php backconnect if your not familair with it, its quite easy with netcat, if all gone well search a local root exploit matching the server version and then cat the /etc/passwd file and crack it.
