We've been using fail2ban to block failed ssh attempts. I would like to setup the same thing for phpMyAdmin as well.

As phpMyAdmin doesn't log authentication attempts to a file (that I know of), I'm unsure of how best to go about this.

Does a plugin / config exist that makes phpMyAdmin log authentication attempts to a file? Or is there some other place I should look for such an activity log?

whither phpMyAdmin 3.5 49 weeks 2 days ago

You may have noticed phpMyAdmin was released sometime ago, but has not appeared in cPanel & WHM. The reason is rather simple: phpMyAdmin 3.5 was released with a library that we are unable to distribute. More information is available in the phpMyAdmin development list archives

Once the matter is resolved we will provide the newer version of phpMyAdmin.
