An ipmitool security update has been released for Debian GNU/Linux 8 LTS to address a buffer overflow issue.
Package : ipmitool
Version : 1.8.14-4+deb8u1
CVE ID : CVE-2020-5208
Debian Bug : 950761
Christopher Ertl found that multiple functions in ipmitool 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.
For Debian 8 "Jessie", this problem has been fixed in version
1.8.14-4+deb8u1.
We recommend that you upgrade your ipmitool packages.
