{"id":"AZL-6489","summary":"CVE-2020-5208 affecting package ipmitool for versions less than 1.8.18-21","details":"It's been found that multiple functions in ipmitool before 1.8.19 neglect proper checking of the data received from a remote LAN party, which may lead to buffer overflows and potentially to remote code execution on the ipmitool side. This is especially dangerous if ipmitool is run as a privileged user. This problem is fixed in version 1.8.19.","modified":"2026-04-01T05:20:25.858310Z","published":"2020-02-05T14:15:11Z","upstream":["CVE-2020-5208"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2020-5208"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"ipmitool","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:2","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/ipmitool"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"1.8.18-21"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-6489.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5","severity":[{"type":"CVSS_V3","score":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H"}]}
