The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:2663 advisory.

  • ntp: DoS on client ntpd using server mode packet (CVE-2020-11868)

  • ntp: ntpd using highly predictable transmit timestamps could result in time change or DoS (CVE-2020-13817)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application’s self-reported version number.
