Tracker summary

CVE-2018-7184 low priority: Debian including 2 source packages (ntp, ntpsec), 6 status rows across 5 suites (bookworm, bullseye, forky, sid, trixie): resolved 6.

Description:

ntpd in ntp 4.2.8p4 before 4.2.8p11 drops bad packets before updating the "received" timestamp, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (disruption) by sending a packet with a zero-origin timestamp causing the association to reset and setting the contents of the packet as the most recent timestamp. This issue is a result of an incomplete fix for CVE-2015-7704.
