`chronyd'. This is a daemon which runs in background on the system. It
obtains measurements (e.g. via the network) of the system's offset
relative to other systems, and adjusts the system time accordingly. For
isolated systems, the user can periodically enter the correct time by hand
(using `chronyc'). In either case, `chronyd' determines the rate at which
the computer gains or loses time, and compensates for this. Chronyd
implements the NTP protocol and can act as either a client or a server.
`chronyc'. This is a command-line driven control and monitoring program.
An administrator can use this to fine-tune various parameters within the
daemon, add or delete servers etc whilst the daemon is running.");

multiple vulnerabilities in chrony, an alternative NTP client and server:
CVE-2015-1821
Using particular address/subnet pairs when configuring access control
would cause an invalid memory write. This could allow attackers to
cause a denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2015-1822
When allocating memory to save unacknowledged replies to authenticated
command requests, a pointer would be left uninitialized, which could
trigger an invalid memory write. This could allow attackers to cause a
denial of service (crash) or execute arbitrary code.
CVE-2015-1853
When peering with other NTP hosts using authenticated symmetric
association, the internal state variables would be updated before the
MAC of the NTP messages was validated. This could allow a remote
attacker to cause a denial of service by impeding synchronization
between NTP peers.");
