    Problem type : local
    Debian-specific: no
    CVE ID : CVE-2011-4339
    Debian Bug : 651917

    It was discovered that OpenIPMI, the Intelligent Platform Management
    Interface library and tools, used too wide permissions PID file,
    which allows local users to kill arbitrary processes by writing to
    this file.

    version 1.8.11-2+squeeze2.

    For the unstable distribution (sid), this problem has been fixed in
    version 1.8.11-5.

    We recommend that you upgrade your ipmitool packages.
