Description David Walser 2023-04-13 16:56:47 CEST

Advisories were posted a few days ago here:
https://github.com/spwpun/ntp-4.2.8p15-cves

with very little detail.  I've been told by a security guy from SUSE that "our engineer review says the the mstolfp ones are only callable via ntpq (so would need to have someone point ntpq at a malicious server) and the last one is in a specific ntp reference clock driver" so these may not be a big deal.

Assigning globally as no particular packager in view; CC'ing Jean-Pierre who did the most recent correction to ntp.
