There is no fixed version for RHEL:6 busybox.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream busybox package and not the busybox package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:6 relevant fixed versions and status.
The add_probe function in modutils/modprobe.c in BusyBox before 1.23.0 allows local users to bypass intended restrictions on loading kernel modules via a / (slash) character in a module name, as demonstrated by an "ifconfig /usbserial up" command or a "mount -t /snd_pcm none /" command.
