Summary
Security update for ntp
Details

ntp was updated to fix two security related flaws as well as 'slew' mode handling for leap seconds.

The following vulnerabilities were fixe:

  • ntpd could accept unauthenticated packets with symmetric key crypto. (CVE-2015-1798)
  • ntpd authentication did not protect symmetric associations against DoS attacks (CVE-2015-1799)
  • ntp-keygen may generate non-random symmetric keys on big-endian systems (bsc#928321, CVE-2015-3405).

The following non-security issues were fixed:

  • Fix slew mode for leap seconds (bnc#918342).
