specification. IPMI is an open standard for machine health, inventory, and
remote power control.
It was discovered that the IPMI event daemon (ipmievd) created its process
ID (PID) file with world-writable permissions. A local user could use this
flaw to make the ipmievd init script kill an arbitrary process when the
ipmievd daemon is stopped or restarted. (CVE-2011-4339)
All users of ipmitool are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
contains a backported patch to correct this issue. After installing this
update, the IPMI event daemon (ipmievd) will be restarted automatically.");
