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.
