CVE-2020-13817 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
Upgrade Debian:11 ntp to version 1:4.2.8p14+dfsg-1 or higher.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream ntp package and not the ntp package as distributed by Debian.
See How to fix? for Debian:11 relevant fixed versions and status.
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.
