CVSS v2.0
6.8
Medium
| Vector | AV:N/AC:M/Au:N/C:P/I:P/A:P |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
ntp versions 4.x before 4.2.8p1
Description
The issue arises from the
read network packet function in ntpd not properly determining whether a source IP address is an IPv6 loopback address. This makes it easier for remote attackers to spoof restricted packets and read or write to the runtime state by sending a packet from the ::1 address to the ntpd machine's network interface.Recommendations
For ntp versions 4.x before 4.2.8p1, update to version 4.2.8p1 or later to resolve the issue.
