ntpd in ntp before 4.2.8p14 and 4.3.x before 4.3.100 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon exit or system time change) by predicting transmit timestamps for use in spoofed packets. The victim must be relying on unauthenticated IPv4 time sources. There must be an off-path attacker who can query time from the victim's ntpd instance.

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

The version of AOS installed on the remote host is prior to 5.17.1.3. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the NXSA-AOS-5.17.1.3 advisory.

  - An issue was discovered in the Linux kernel before 4.14.11. A double free may be caused by the function     allocate_trace_buffer in the file kernel/trace/trace.c. (CVE-2017-18595)

  - In the Linux kernel 5.4.0-rc2, there is a use-after-free (read) in the __blk_add_trace function in     kernel/trace/blktrace.c (which is used to fill out a blk_io_trace structure and place it in a per-cpu sub-     buffer). (CVE-2019-19768)

  - A NULL pointer dereference flaw was found in the Linux kernel's SELinux subsystem in versions before 5.7.
    This flaw occurs while importing the Commercial IP Security Option (CIPSO) protocol's category bitmap into     the SELinux extensible bitmap via the' ebitmap_netlbl_import' routine. While processing the CIPSO     restricted bitmap tag in the 'cipso_v4_parsetag_rbm' routine, it sets the security attribute to indicate     that the category bitmap is present, even if it has not been allocated. This issue leads to a NULL pointer     dereference issue while importing the same category bitmap into SELinux. This flaw allows a remote network     user to crash the system kernel, resulting in a denial of service. (CVE-2020-10711)

  - ntpd in ntp before 4.2.8p14 and 4.3.x before 4.3.100 allows an off-path attacker to block unauthenticated     synchronization via a server mode packet with a spoofed source IP address, because transmissions are     rescheduled even when a packet lacks a valid origin timestamp. (CVE-2020-11868)

  - An issue was discovered in dbus >= 1.3.0 before 1.12.18. The DBusServer in libdbus, as used in dbus-     daemon, leaks file descriptors when a message exceeds the per-message file descriptor limit. A local     attacker with access to the D-Bus system bus or another system service's private AF_UNIX socket could use     this to make the system service reach its file descriptor limit, denying service to subsequent D-Bus     clients. (CVE-2020-12049)

  - The VFIO PCI driver in the Linux kernel through 5.6.13 mishandles attempts to access disabled memory     space. (CVE-2020-12888)

  - ntpd in ntp before 4.2.8p14 and 4.3.x before 4.3.100 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (daemon exit or system time change) by predicting transmit timestamps for use in spoofed packets. The     victim must be relying on unauthenticated IPv4 time sources. There must be an off-path attacker who can     query time from the victim's ntpd instance. (CVE-2020-13817)

  - When responding to new h2c connection requests, Apache Tomcat versions 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0, 9.0.0.M1 to     9.0.41 and 8.5.0 to 8.5.61 could duplicate request headers and a limited amount of request body from one     request to another meaning user A and user B could both see the results of user A's request.
    (CVE-2021-25122)

  - The fix for CVE-2020-9484 was incomplete. When using Apache Tomcat 10.0.0-M1 to 10.0.0, 9.0.0.M1 to     9.0.41, 8.5.0 to 8.5.61 or 7.0.0. to 7.0.107 with a configuration edge case that was highly unlikely to be     used, the Tomcat instance was still vulnerable to CVE-2020-9494.

  - ntpd in ntp 4.2.8p10, 4.2.8p11, 4.2.8p12 and 4.2.8p13 allow remote attackers to prevent a broadcast client     from synchronizing its clock with a broadcast NTP server via soofed mode 3 and mode 5 packets.

Impact

An attacker who can send a large number of packets with the spoofed IPv4 address of the upstream server can use this flaw to modify the victim's clock by a limited amount or cause ntpd to exit.

BIG-IP

Your BIG-IP system is affected only when you configure it as an NTP server, and sources for the BIG-IP system's time are unreliable, unauthenticated, upstream NTP servers.

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

  - Buffer overflow in the decodearr function in ntpq in     ntp 4.2.8p6 through 4.2.8p10 allows remote attackers to     execute arbitrary code by leveraging an ntpq query and     sending a response with a crafted array.(CVE-2018-7183)

  - 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.(CVE-2018-7184)

  - The broadcast mode replay prevention functionality in     ntpd in NTP before 4.2.8p9 allows remote attackers to     cause a denial of service (reject broadcast mode     packets) via a crafted broadcast mode     packet.(CVE-2016-7427)

  - ntpd in ntp before 4.2.8p14 and 4.3.x before 4.3.100     allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service     (daemon exit or system time change) by predicting     transmit timestamps for use in spoofed packets.

According to the versions of the ntp packages installed, the EulerOS Virtualization for ARM 64 installation on the remote host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw was found in the Network Time Protocol (NTP),     where a security issue exists that allows an off-path     attacker to prevent the Network Time Protocol daemon     (ntpd) from synchronizing with NTP servers not using     authentication. A server mode packet with a spoofed     source address sent to the client ntpd causes the next     transmission to be rescheduled, even if the packet does     not have a valid origin timestamp. If the packet is     sent to the client frequently enough, it stops polling     the server and is unable to synchronize with     it.(CVE-2020-11868)

  - A high-performance ntpd instance that gets its time     from unauthenticated IPv4 time sources may be     vulnerable to an off-path attacker who can query time     from the victim's ntpd instance. An attacker who can     send a large number of packets with the spoofed IPv4     address of the upstream server can use this flaw to     modify the victim's clock by a limited amount or cause     ntpd to exit.(CVE-2020-13817)

    Please review the referenced CVE identifiers for details.
  Workaround :

    There is no known workaround at this time.

This update for ntp fixes the following issues :

ntp was updated to 4.2.8p15

  - CVE-2020-11868: Fixed an issue which a server mode     packet with spoofed source address frequently send to     the client ntpd could have caused denial of service     (bsc#1169740).

  - CVE-2018-8956: Fixed an issue which could have allowed     remote attackers to prevent a broadcast client from     synchronizing its clock with a broadcast NTP server via     spoofed mode 3 and mode 5 packets (bsc#1171355).

  - CVE-2020-13817: Fixed an issue which an off-path     attacker with the ability to query time from victim's     ntpd instance could have modified the victim's clock by     a limited amount (bsc#1172651).

  - CVE-2020-15025: Fixed an issue which remote attacker     could have caused denial of service by consuming the     memory when a CMAC key was used andassociated with a     CMAC algorithm in the ntp.keys (bsc#1173334).

  - Removed an OpenSSL version warning (bsc#992038 and     bsc#1125401).

This update was imported from the SUSE:SLE-15:Update update project.

The version of ntp installed on the remote host is prior to 4.2.6p5-29. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the ALAS2-2020-1455 advisory.

The remote Redhat Enterprise Linux 7 host has packages installed that are affected by multiple vulnerabilities as referenced in the RHSA-2020:2663 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):

    * ntp: ntpd using highly predictable transmit timestamps could result in time change or DoS     (CVE-2020-13817)

    * ntp: DoS on client ntpd using server mode packet (CVE-2020-11868)
