Denial of service vulnerability in ntpd

Network Time Protocol NTP is a protocol used to synchronize a computer's time to its server or clock source e.g., quartz clock, GPS, etc.. Synchronizing a computer's clock to UTC ensures that data interactions in a network can proceed smoothly.NTPD Network Time Protocol daemon is an operating...

RHEL 7 : ntp (RHSA-2016:2583)

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2016:2583 advisory. The Network Time Protocol NTP is used to synchronize a computer's time with another referenced time source. These packages include the ntpd...

ntp: off-path denial of service on authenticated broadcast mode

It was found that when NTP was configured in broadcast mode, a remote attacker could broadcast packets with bad authentication to all clients. The clients, upon receiving the malformed packets, would break the association with the broadcast server, causing them to become out of sync over a longer...

ntp: missing key check allows impersonation between authenticated peers (VU#357792)

A flaw was found in the way NTP verified trusted keys during symmetric key authentication. An authenticated client A could use this flaw to modify a packet sent between a server B and a client C using a key that is different from the one known to the client A...

ntp: potential infinite loop in ntpq

A flaw was found in the way the ntpq client processed certain incoming packets in a loop in the getresponse function. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash an ntpq client instance...

ntp: stack exhaustion in recursive traversal of restriction list

A stack-based buffer overflow flaw was found in the way ntpd processed 'ntpdc reslist' commands that queried restriction lists with a large amount of entries. A remote attacker could use this flaw to crash ntpd...

ntp: incomplete checks in ntp_crypto.c

It was found that the fix for CVE-2014-9750 was incomplete: three issues were found in the value length checks in NTP's ntpcrypto.c, where a packet with particular autokey operations that contained malicious data was not always being completely validated. A remote attacker could use a specially...

ntp: config command can be used to set the pidfile and drift file paths

It was found that NTP's :config command could be used to set the pidfile and driftfile paths without any restrictions. A remote attacker could use this flaw to overwrite a file on the file system with a file containing the pid of the ntpd process immediately or the current estimated drift of the...

ntp: restriction list NULL pointer dereference

A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the way ntpd processed 'ntpdc reslist' commands that queried restriction lists with a large amount of entries. A remote attacker could potentially use this flaw to crash ntpd...

ntp: slow memory leak in CRYPTO_ASSOC

A memory leak flaw was found in ntpd's CRYPTOASSOC. If ntpd was configured to use autokey authentication, an attacker could send packets to ntpd that would, after several days of ongoing attack, cause it to run out of memory...

ntp: crash with crafted logconfig configuration command

It was found that ntpd could crash due to an uninitialized variable when processing malformed logconfig configuration commands...

ntp: incomplete checks in ntp_crypto.c

It was found that the fix for CVE-2014-9750 was incomplete: three issues were found in the value length checks in NTP's ntpcrypto.c, where a packet with particular autokey operations that contained malicious data was not always being completely validated. A remote attacker could use a specially...

ntp: infinite loop in sntp processing crafted packet

It was discovered that the sntp utility could become unresponsive due to being caught in an infinite loop when processing a crafted NTP packet...

Moderate: Red Hat Security Advisory: ntp security and bug fix update

An update for ntp is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7. Red Hat Product Security has rated this update as having a security impact of Moderate. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System CVSS base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available for each vulnerability from the CV...

USN-3096-1: NTP vulnerabilities

Aanchal Malhotra discovered that NTP incorrectly handled authenticated broadcast mode. A remote attacker could use this issue to perform a replay attack. CVE-2015-7973 Matt Street discovered that NTP incorrectly verified peer associations of symmetric keys. A remote attacker could use this issue ...

Cisco IOS Denial of Service Vulnerability (CNVD-2016-06186)

Cisco IOS is an operating system developed by Cisco for its network devices. A denial of service vulnerability exists in Cisco IOS, which arises from the program's failure to properly handle invalid NTP packets. A remote attacker could exploit this vulnerability by sending a large number of...

CVE-2016-1478

Cisco IOS 15.53S3, 15.61S2, 15.62S1, and 15.62T1 does not properly dequeue invalid NTP packets, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service interface wedge by sending many crafted NTP packets, aka Bug ID CSCva35619...
