The only generally-exploitable bug in the above list is the crypto-NAK
bug, which has a CVSS2 score of 6.4.

Additionally, three bugs that have already been fixed in ntp-4.2.8 but
were not fixed in ntp-4.2.6 as it was EOL'd have a security component,
but are all below 1.8 CVSS score, so we're reporting them here :

- Bug 2382 : Peer precision < -31 gives division by zero

- Bug 1774 : Segfaults if cryptostats enabled when built without
OpenSSL

- Bug 1593 : ntpd abort in free() with logconfig syntax error"
