Description Srikanth Balasubramanian 2026-09-04 10:59:22 UTC

Disclaimer: Community trackers are created by Red Hat Product Security team on a best effort basis. Package maintainers are required to ascertain if the flaw indeed affects their package, before starting the update process.

ipmi-oem in FreeIPMI before 1.6.19 has a stack-based buffer over-read in ipmi_oem_fujitsu_get_sel_entry_long_text in ipmi-oem/ipmi-oem-fujitsu.c when a BMC provides a short response, a different vulnerability than CVE-2026-50031 (which has different affected versions).
