"The remote CentOS Linux 6 host has a package installed that is affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the
RHSA-2020:1331 advisory.

  - 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. (CVE-2020-5208)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
