Summary
Here are the details from the Slackware 14.1 ChangeLog: patches/packages/ntp-4.2.8p2-i486-1_slack14.1.txz: Upgraded. In addition to bug fixes and enhancements, this release fixes the following medium-severity vulnerabilities involving private key authentication: * ntpd accepts unauthenticated packets with symmetric key crypto. * Authentication doesn't protect symmetric associations against DoS attacks. For more information, see: http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2015-1798 http://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2015-1799 (* Security fix *)
