point. An adversary may be able to attack a client ntpq process, but cannot attack ntpd.
- CVE-2023-26553: mstolfp in libntp/mstolfp.c has an out-of-bounds write when copying the trailing
number. An adversary may be able to attack a client ntpq process, but cannot attack ntpd.
- CVE-2023-26554: mstolfp in libntp/mstolfp.c has an out-of-bounds write when adding a '\0'
