CVE-2015-1798: The symmetric-key feature in the receive function in ntp_proto.c in ntpd in NTP required a correct MAC only if the MAC field has a nonzero length, which made it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof packets by omitting the MAC (bsc#924202).

CVE-2015-1799: The symmetric-key feature in the receive function in ntp_proto.c in ntpd in NTP performed state-variable updates upon receiving certain invalid packets, which made it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to cause a denial of service (synchronization loss) by spoofing the source IP address of a peer (bsc#924202).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

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

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

According to its self-reported version number, the remote pfSense install is prior to 2.2.5. It is, therefore, affected by multiple vulnerabilities as stated in the referenced vendor advisories.

The version of the remote NTP server is 3.x or 4.x prior to 4.2.8p4.
It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A flaw exists in the ntp_crypto.c file due to improper     validation of the 'vallen' value in extension fields. An     unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via     specially crafted autokey packets, to disclose     sensitive information or cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2015-7691)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the autokey     functionality due to a failure in the crypto_bob2(),     crypto_bob3(), and cert_sign() functions to properly     validate the 'vallen' value. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this, via specially crafted autokey     packets, to crash the NTP service. (CVE-2015-7692)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists in the     crypto_recv() function in the file ntp_crypto.c related     to autokey functionality. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this, via an ongoing flood of NTPv4     autokey requests, to exhaust memory resources.
    (CVE-2015-7701)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     validation of packets containing certain autokey     operations. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this, via specially crafted autokey packets,     to crash the NTP service. (CVE-2015-7702)

  - A flaw exists related to the handling of the 'config:'     command. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to set the 'pidfile' and 'driftfile' directives     without restrictions, thus allowing the attacker to     overwrite arbitrary files. Note that exploitation of     this issue requires that remote configuration is enabled     for ntpd. (CVE-2015-7703)

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

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     implementation of rate-limiting when handling server     queries. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to stop the client from querying its servers,     preventing it from updating its clock. (CVE-2015-7705)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to an     integer overflow condition in the reset_peer() function     in the file ntp_request.c when handling private mode     packets having request code RESET_PEER (0x16). An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to crash     the NTP service. Note that exploitation of this issue     requires that ntpd is configured to enable mode 7     packets, and that the mode 7 packets are not properly     protected by available authentication and restriction     mechanisms. (CVE-2015-7848)

  - A use-after-free error exists in the auth_delkeys()     function in the file authkeys.c when handling trusted     keys. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this     to dereference already freed memory, resulting in a     crash of the NTP service or the execution of arbitrary     code. (CVE-2015-7849)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to a logic     flaw in the authreadkeys() function in the file     authreadkeys.c when handling extended logging where the     log and key files are set to be the same file. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     crafted set of remote configuration requests, to cause     the NTP service to stop responding. (CVE-2015-7850)

  - A flaw exists in the save_config() function in the file     ntp_control.c due to improper sanitization of     user-supplied input. An authenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this issue, via a crafted set of     configuration requests, to overwrite arbitrary files.
    Note that this issue only affects VMS systems and     requires that ntpd is configured to allow remote     configuration. (CVE-2015-7851)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to an     off-by-one overflow condition in the cookedprint()     function in the file ntpq.c when handling mode 6     response packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to crash the NTP service.
    (CVE-2015-7852)

  - A overflow condition exists in the     read_refclock_packet() function in the file ntp_io.c     when handling negative data lengths. A local attacker     can exploit this to crash the NTP service or possibly     gain elevated privileges. (CVE-2015-7853)

  - A heap-based overflow condition exists in function     MD5auth_setkey() in the file authkeys.c when handling     passwords. An authenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via a crafted set of configuration requests, to     crash the NTP service or possibly execute arbitrary     code. (CVE-2015-7854)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to an     assertion flaw in the decodenetnum() function in the     file decodenetnum.c when handling long data values in     mode 6 and 7 packets. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to crash the NTP service.
    (CVE-2015-7855)

  - An authentication bypass vulnerability exists in the     receive() function in the file ntp_proto.c when handling     crypto-NAK packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker     can exploit this to cause the service to accept time     from unauthenticated, ephemeral symmetric peers.
    (CVE-2015-7871)

  - obsoletes ntp-memlock.patch.

  - Add a controlkey line to /etc/ntp.conf if one does not     already exist to allow runtime configuuration via ntpq.

  - Temporarily disable memlock to avoid problems due to     high memory usage during name resolution (boo#946386,     ntp-memlock.patch).

  - Use SHA1 instead of MD5 for symmetric keys (boo#905885).

  - Improve runtime configuration :

  - Read keytype from ntp.conf

  - Don't write ntp keys to syslog.

  - Fix legacy action scripts to pass on command line     arguments.

  - Remove ntp.1.gz, it wasn't installed anymore.

  - Remove ntp-4.2.7-rh-manpages.tar.gz and only keep     ntptime.8.gz. The rest is partially irrelevant,     partially redundant and potentially outdated     (boo#942587).

  - Remove 'kod' from the restrict line in ntp.conf     (boo#944300).

  - Use ntpq instead of deprecated ntpdc in start-ntpd     (boo#936327).

  - Add a controlkey to ntp.conf to make the above work.

  - Don't let 'keysdir' lines in ntp.conf trigger the 'keys'     parser.

  - Disable mode 7 (ntpdc) again, now that we don't use it     anymore.

  - Add 'addserver' as a new legacy action.

  - Fix the comment regarding addserver in ntp.conf     (boo#910063).

  - Update to version 4.2.8p3 which incorporates all     security fixes and most other patches we have so far     (fate#319040). More information on:
    http://archive.ntp.org/ntp4/ChangeLog-stable

  - Disable chroot by default (boo#926510).

  - Enable ntpdc for backwards compatibility (boo#920238).

  - Security fix: ntp-keygen may generate non-random     symmetric keys

Multiple Cisco products incorporate a version of the ntpd package. Versions of this package are affected by one or more vulnerabilities that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to create a denial of service (DoS) condition or modify the time being advertised by a device acting as a network time protocol (NTP) server.
