Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions FreeIPMI versions prior to 1.16.17
Description The Intelligent Platform Management Interface (IPMI) specification defines a set of interfaces for platform management and is implemented by numerous hardware manufacturers to support system management. It is commonly used for sensor reading and remote power control. The ipmi-oem client command implements IPMI OEM commands for specific hardware vendors. Three subcommands were found to have exploitable buffer overflows in response messages: 'ipmi-oem dell get-last-post-code' for retrieving the last POST code and error description on some Dell servers, 'ipmi-oem supermicro extra-firmware-info' for obtaining extra firmware information on Supermicro servers, and 'ipmi-oem wistron read-proprietary-string' for reading a proprietary string on Wistron servers.
Recommendations Versions prior to 1.16.17 should be updated to version 1.16.17 or later.
