Descriptions
The getresponse function in ntpq in NTP versions before 4.2.8p9 and 4.3.x before 4.3.90 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (infinite loop) via crafted packets with incorrect values.
La función getresponse en ntpq en NTP versiones anteriores a 4.2.8p9 y 4.3.x en versiones anteriores a 4.3.90 permite a los atacantes remotos causar una denegación de servicio (bucle infinito) a través de paquetes creados con valores incorrectos.
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.
