An off-path attacker can cause a preemptible client association to be demobilized in NTP 4.2.8p4 and earlier and NTPSec a5fb34b9cc89b92a8fef2f459004865c93bb7f92 by sending a crypto NAK packet to a victim client with a spoofed source address of an existing associated peer. This is true even if authentication is enabled.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 host has one or more packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities that have been acknowledged by the vendor but will not be patched.

  - ntp: Stack-based buffer overflow in ntpq and ntpdc allows denial of service or code execution     (CVE-2018-12327)

  - The monlist feature in ntp_request.c in ntpd in NTP before 4.2.7p26 allows remote attackers to cause a     denial of service (traffic amplification) via forged (1) REQ_MON_GETLIST or (2) REQ_MON_GETLIST_1     requests, as exploited in the wild in December 2013. (CVE-2013-5211)

  - An Information Disclosure vulnerability exists in NTP 4.2.7p25 private (mode 6/7) messages via a     GET_RESTRICT control message, which could let a malicious user obtain sensitive information.
    (CVE-2014-5209)

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied on the package manager's report that the package is installed.

This plugin has been deprecated as it does not adhere to established standards for this style of check.

According to the versions of the ntp packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - It was found that when ntp is configured with rate     limiting for all associations the limits are also     applied to responses received from its configured     sources. A remote attacker who knows the sources can     cause a denial of service by preventing ntpd from     accepting valid responses from its     sources.(CVE-2016-7426)

  - ntpq in NTP before 4.2.8p7 allows remote attackers to     obtain origin timestamps and then impersonate peers via     unspecified vectors.(CVE-2015-8139)

  - 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.(CVE-2015-7977)

  - A vulnerability was found in NTP, in the parsing of     packets from the /dev/datum device. A malicious device     could send crafted messages, causing ntpd to     crash.(CVE-2017-6462)

  - The process_packet function in ntp_proto.c in ntpd in     NTP 4.x before 4.2.8p8 allows remote attackers to cause     a denial of service (peer-variable modification) by     sending spoofed packets from many source IP addresses     in a certain scenario, as demonstrated by triggering an     incorrect leap indication.(CVE-2016-4954)

  - It was found that ntpd could crash due to an     uninitialized variable when processing malformed     logconfig configuration commands.(CVE-2015-5194)

  - It was discovered that the sntp utility could become     unresponsive due to being caught in an infinite loop     when processing a crafted NTP packet.(CVE-2015-5219)

  - It was discovered that ntpd as a client did not     correctly check the originate timestamp in received     packets. A remote attacker could use this flaw to send     a crafted packet to an ntpd client that would     effectively disable synchronization with the server, or     push arbitrary offset/delay measurements to modify the     time on the client.(CVE-2015-8138)

  - It was found that the fix for CVE-2014-9750 was     incomplete: three issues were found in the value length     checks in NTP's ntp_crypto.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 crafted NTP     packet to crash ntpd.(CVE-2015-7702)

  - Multiple buffer overflow flaws were discovered in     ntpd's crypto_recv(), ctl_putdata(), and configure()     functions. A remote attacker could use either of these     flaws to send a specially crafted request packet that     could crash ntpd or, potentially, execute arbitrary     code with the privileges of the ntp user. Note: the     crypto_recv() flaw requires non default configurations     to be active, while the ctl_putdata() flaw, by default,     can only be exploited via local attackers, and the     configure() flaw requires additional authentication to     exploit.(CVE-2014-9295)

  - It was found that an ntpd client could be forced to     change from basic client/server mode to the interleaved     symmetric mode. A remote attacker could use a spoofed     packet that, when processed by an ntpd client, would     cause that client to reject all future legitimate     server responses, effectively disabling time     synchronization on that client.(CVE-2016-1548)

  - A flaw was found in the way NTP's libntp performed     message authentication. An attacker able to observe the     timing of the comparison function used in packet     authentication could potentially use this flaw to     recover the message digest.(CVE-2016-1550)

  - A denial of service flaw was found in the way NTP     handled preemptable client associations. A remote     attacker could send several crypto NAK packets to a     victim client, each with a spoofed source address of an     existing associated peer, preventing that client from     synchronizing its time.(CVE-2016-1547)

  - It was found that the fix for CVE-2014-9750 was     incomplete: three issues were found in the value length     checks in NTP's ntp_crypto.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 crafted NTP     packet to crash ntpd.(CVE-2015-7692)

  - 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.(CVE-2015-8158)

  - It was discovered that ntpd as a client did not     correctly check timestamps in Kiss-of-Death packets. A     remote attacker could use this flaw to send a crafted     Kiss-of-Death packet to an ntpd client that would     increase the client's polling interval value, and     effectively disable synchronization with the     server.(CVE-2015-7704)

  - A flaw was found in the control mode functionality of     ntpd. A remote attacker could send a crafted control     mode packet which could lead to information disclosure     or result in DDoS amplification attacks.(CVE-2016-9310)

  - A vulnerability was discovered in the NTP server's     parsing of configuration directives. A remote,     authenticated attacker could cause ntpd to crash by     sending a crafted message.(CVE-2017-6464)

  - It was found that ntpd automatically generated weak     keys for its internal use if no ntpdc request     authentication key was specified in the ntp.conf     configuration file. A remote attacker able to match the     configured IP restrictions could guess the generated     key, and possibly use it to send ntpdc query or     configuration requests.(CVE-2014-9293)

  - A denial of service flaw was found in the way NTP hosts     that were peering with each other authenticated     themselves before updating their internal state     variables. An attacker could send packets to one peer     host, which could cascade to other peers, and stop the     synchronization process among the reached     peers.(CVE-2015-1799)

Note that Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the EulerOS security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

The version of Arista Networks EOS running on the remote device is affected by multiple vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw exists in NTP in the receive() function within     file ntpd/ntp_proto.c that allows packets with an origin     timestamp of zero to bypass security checks. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     spoof arbitrary content. (CVE-2015-8138)

  - A flaw exists in NTP when handling crafted Crypto NAK     Packets having spoofed source addresses that match an     existing associated peer. A unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to demobilize a client     association, resulting in a denial of service condition.
    (CVE-2016-1547)

  - A flaw exists in NTP when handling packets that have     been spoofed to appear to be coming from a valid ntpd     server, which may cause a switch to interleaved     symmetric mode. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this, via a packet having a spoofed timestamp,     to cause the client to reject future legitimate server     responses, resulting in a denial of service condition.
    (CVE-2016-1548)

  - A flaw exits in NTP when handling a saturation of     ephemeral associations. An authenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to defeat the clock selection     algorithm and thereby modify a victim's clock.
    (CVE-2016-1549)

  - A flaw exists in NTP in the message authentication     functionality of libntp that is triggered when handling     a series of specially crafted messages. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     partially recover the message digest key.
    (CVE-2016-1550)

  - don't allow spoofed packet to enable symmetric     interleaved mode (CVE-2016-1548)

  - check mode of new source in config command     (CVE-2016-2518)

  - make MAC check resilient against timing attack     (CVE-2016-1550)

According to its self-reported version number, the version of Junos Space running on the remote device is < 17.1R1, and is therefore affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

The version of NTP installed on the remote AIX host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A time serving flaw exists in the trusted key system     due to improper key checks. An authenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to perform impersonation     attacks between authenticated peers. (CVE-2015-7974)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of a crafted Crypto NAK Packet with a source     address spoofed to match that of an existing associated     peer. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to demobilize a client association. (CVE-2016-1547)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     message authentication functionality in libntp that is     triggered during the handling of a series of specially     crafted messages. An adjacent attacker can exploit this     to partially recover the message digest key.
    (CVE-2016-1550)

  - A flaw exists due to improper filtering of IPv4 'bogon'     packets received from a network. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to spoof packets to     appear to come from a specific reference clock.
    (CVE-2016-1551)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows an     authenticated, remote attacker to manipulate the value     of the trustedkey, controlkey, or requestkey via a     crafted packet, preventing authentication with ntpd     until the daemon has been restarted. (CVE-2016-2517)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the MATCH_ASSOC()     function that occurs during the creation of peer     associations with hmode greater than 7. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted packet, to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2016-2518)

  - An overflow condition exists in the ctl_getitem()     function in ntpd due to improper validation of     user-supplied input when reporting return values. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause     ntpd to abort. (CVE-2016-2519)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling     authentication due to improper packet timestamp checks.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this,     via a specially crafted and spoofed packet, to     demobilize the ephemeral associations. (CVE-2016-4953)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling spoofed     packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via specially crafted packets, to affect peer     variables (e.g., cause leap indications to be set). Note     that the attacker must be able to spoof packets with     correct origin timestamps from servers before expected     response packets arrive. (CVE-2016-4954)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling spoofed     packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via specially crafted packets, to reset autokey     associations. Note that the attacker must be able to     spoof packets with correct origin timestamps from     servers before expected response packets arrive.
    (CVE-2016-4955)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling     CRYPTO_NAK packets that allows an unauthenticated,     remote attacker to cause a crash. (CVE-2016-4957)

An off-path attacker can cause a preemptible client association to be demobilized in NTP 4.2.8p4 and earlier and NTPSec a5fb34b9cc89b92a8fef2f459004865c93bb7f92 by sending a crypto NAK packet to a victim client with a spoofed source address of an existing associated peer. This is true even if authentication is enabled.
(CVE-2016-1547)

An off-path attacker can deny service to ntpd clients by demobilizing preemptable associations using spoofed crypto-NAK packets. This vulnerability involves different code paths than those used by CVE-2015-7979.

Security Fix(es) :

  - 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 period of time.
    (CVE-2015-7979)

  - A denial of service flaw was found in the way NTP     handled preemptable client associations. A remote     attacker could send several crypto NAK packets to a     victim client, each with a spoofed source address of an     existing associated peer, preventing that client from     synchronizing its time. (CVE-2016-1547)

  - It was found that an ntpd client could be forced to     change from basic client/server mode to the interleaved     symmetric mode. A remote attacker could use a spoofed     packet that, when processed by an ntpd client, would     cause that client to reject all future legitimate server     responses, effectively disabling time synchronization on     that client. (CVE-2016-1548)

  - A flaw was found in the way NTP's libntp performed     message authentication. An attacker able to observe the     timing of the comparison function used in packet     authentication could potentially use this flaw to     recover the message digest. (CVE-2016-1550)

  - An out-of-bounds access flaw was found in the way ntpd     processed certain packets. An authenticated attacker     could use a crafted packet to create a peer association     with hmode of 7 and larger, which could potentially     (although highly unlikely) cause ntpd to crash.
    (CVE-2016-2518)

The CVE-2016-1548 issue was discovered by Miroslav Lichvar (Red Hat).

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 / 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2016:1141 advisory.

    The Network Time Protocol (NTP) is used to synchronize a computer's time with another referenced time     source. These packages include the ntpd service which continuously adjusts system time and utilities used     to query and configure the ntpd service.

    Security Fix(es):

The version of the remote NTP server is 3.x or 4.x prior to 4.2.8p7.
It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     validation of the origin timestamp field when handling a     Kiss-of-Death (KoD) packet. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to cause a client to stop     querying its servers, preventing the client from     updating its clock. (CVE-2015-7704)

  - A flaw exists in the receive() function in ntp_proto.c     that allows packets with an origin timestamp of zero to     bypass security checks. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to spoof arbitrary content.
    (CVE-2015-8138)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of a crafted Crypto NAK Packet with a source     address spoofed to match that of an existing associated     peer. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to demobilize a client association. (CVE-2016-1547)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of packets spoofed to appear to be from a valid     ntpd server. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this to cause NTP to switch from basic     client/server mode to interleaved symmetric mode,     causing the client to reject future legitimate     responses. (CVE-2016-1548)

  - A race condition exists that is triggered during the     handling of a saturation of ephemeral associations. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     defeat NTP's clock selection algorithm and modify a     user's clock. (CVE-2016-1549)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     message authentication functionality in libntp that is     triggered during the handling of a series of specially     crafted messages. An adjacent attacker can exploit this     to partially recover the message digest key.
    (CVE-2016-1550)

  - A flaw exists due to improper filtering of IPv4 'bogon'     packets received from a network. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to spoof packets to     appear to come from a specific reference clock.
    (CVE-2016-1551)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows an     authenticated, remote attacker that has knowledge of the     controlkey for ntpq or the requestkey for ntpdc to     create a session with the same IP twice on an     unconfigured directive line, causing ntpd to abort.
    (CVE-2016-2516)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows an     authenticated, remote attacker to manipulate the value     of the trustedkey, controlkey, or requestkey via a     crafted packet, preventing authentication with ntpd     until the daemon has been restarted. (CVE-2016-2517)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the MATCH_ASSOC()     function that occurs during the creation of peer     associations with hmode greater than 7. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted packet, to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2016-2518)

  - An overflow condition exists in the ctl_getitem()     function in ntpd due to improper validation of     user-supplied input when reporting return values. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause     ntpd to abort. (CVE-2016-2519)

New ntp packages are available for Slackware 13.0, 13.1, 13.37, 14.0, 14.1, and -current to fix security issues.
