crypto-NAK\n  * CVE-2015-7855: decodenetnum() will ASSERT botch instead of\n    returning FAIL on some bogus values\n  * CVE-2015-7854: Password Length Memory Corruption Vulnerability\n  * CVE-2015-7853: Invalid length data provided by a custom\n    refclock driver could cause a buffer overflow\n  * CVE-2015-7852 ntpq atoascii() Memory Corruption Vulnerability\n  * CVE-2015-7851 saveconfig Directory Traversal Vulnerability\n  * CVE-2015-7850 remote config logfile-keyfile\n  * CVE-2015-7849 trusted key use-after-free\n  * CVE-2015-7848 mode 7 loop counter underrun\n  * CVE-2015-7701 Slow memory leak in CRYPTO_ASSOC\n  * CVE-2015-7703 configuration directives 'pidfile' and\n    'driftfile' should only be allowed locally\n  * CVE-2015-7704, CVE-2015-7705 Clients that receive a KoD should\n    validate the origin timestamp field\n  * CVE-2015-7691, CVE-2015-7692, CVE-2015-7702 Incomplete autokey\n    data packet length checks\n- Use ntpq instead of deprecated ntpdc in start-ntpd (bnc#936327).\n- Add a controlkey to ntp.conf to make the above work.\n- Improve runtime configuration:\n  * Read keytype from ntp.conf\n  * Don't write ntp keys to syslog.\n- Don't let 'keysdir' lines in ntp.conf trigger the 'keys' parser.\n- Fix the comment regarding addserver in ntp.conf (bnc#910063).\n- Remove ntp.1.gz, it wasn't installed anymore.\n- Remove ntp-4.2.7-rh-manpages.tar.gz and only keep ntptime.8.gz.\n  The rest is partially irrelevant, partially redundant and\n  potentially outdated (bsc#942587).\n- Remove 'kod' from the restrict line in ntp.conf (bsc#944300).\n- Use SHA1 instead of MD5 for symmetric keys (bsc#905885).\n- Require perl-Socket6 (bsc#942441).\n- Fix incomplete backporting of 'rcntp ntptimemset'.","dates":{"published":"2015-11-20T09:21:30.000Z","modified":"2026-02-04T03:52:51.902Z","reserved":null,"kevAdded":[],"kevDue":[]},"cvss":{"headline":{"score":null,"severity":"unknown","version":null,"versionLabel":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"computed":false,"selection":"none"},"metrics":[]},"epss":{"probability":null,"percentile":null,"severity":"unknown","asOf":null,"change":{"pp":null,"baselineDate":null,"baselineScore":null},"history":[],"last30":[]},"kev":{"state":"not-listed","entries":[],"listedCount":0,"totalCatalogs":3,"catalogs":[{"source":"cisa","label":"CISA","listed":false,"entry":null},{"source":"enisa","label":"ENISA","listed":false,"entry":null},{"source":"circl","label":"CIRCL","listed":false,"entry":null}]},"ransomware":{"state":"none-recorded","sources":[]},"exploits":[],"exploitCount":0,"weaknesses":[],"affected":[{"vendor":"suse","product":"ntp&distro=SUSE
