attacker could possibly use this issue to brute force the MD5 key and spoof
a client or server. (CVE-2014-9294)
Stephen Roettger discovered that NTP contained buffer overflows in the
crypto_recv(), ctl_putdata() and configure() functions. In non-default
configurations, a remote attacker could use these issues to cause NTP to
crash, resulting in a denial of service, or possibly execute arbitrary
code. The default compiler options for affected releases should reduce the
vulnerability to a denial of service. In addition, attackers would be
isolated by the NTP AppArmor profile. (CVE-2014-9295)
