   An update that solves 30 vulnerabilities and has 6 fixes is
   now available.

Description:


   This network time protocol server ntp was updated to 4.2.8p6 to fix the
   following issues:

   Also yast2-ntp-client was updated to match some sntp syntax changes.
   (bsc#937837)

   Major functional changes:
   - The "sntp" commandline tool changed its option handling in a major way.
   - "controlkey 1" is added during update to ntp.conf to allow sntp to work.
   - The local clock is being disabled during update.
   - ntpd is no longer running chrooted.


   Other functional changes:
   - ntp-signd is installed.
   - "enable mode7" can be added to the configuration to allow ntdpc to work
     as compatibility mode option.
   - "kod" was removed from the default restrictions.
   - SHA1 keys are used by default instead of MD5 keys.

   These security issues were fixed:
   - CVE-2015-5219: An endless loop due to incorrect precision to double
     conversion (bsc#943216).
   - CVE-2015-8158: Fixed potential infinite loop in ntpq (bsc#962966).

     broadcast mode (bsc#962784).
   - CVE-2015-7978: Stack exhaustion in recursive traversal of restriction
     list (bsc#963000).
   - CVE-2015-7977: reslist NULL pointer dereference (bsc#962970).
   - CVE-2015-7976: ntpq saveconfig command allows dangerous characters in
     filenames (bsc#962802).
   - CVE-2015-7975: nextvar() missing length check (bsc#962988).
   - CVE-2015-7974: Skeleton Key: Missing key check allows impersonation
     between authenticated peers (bsc#962960).
   - CVE-2015-7973: Replay attack on authenticated broadcast mode
     (bsc#962995).
   - CVE-2015-8140: ntpq vulnerable to replay attacks (bsc#962994).
   - CVE-2015-8139: Origin Leak: ntpq and ntpdc, disclose origin (bsc#962997).
   - CVE-2015-5300: MITM attacker could have forced ntpd to make a step
     larger than the panic threshold (bsc#951629).
   - CVE-2015-7871: NAK to the Future: Symmetric association authentication
     bypass via crypto-NAK (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7855: decodenetnum() will ASSERT botch instead of returning
     FAIL on some bogus values (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7854: Password Length Memory Corruption Vulnerability
     (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7853: Invalid length data provided by a custom refclock driver
     could cause a buffer overflow (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7852: ntpq atoascii() Memory Corruption Vulnerability
     (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7851: saveconfig Directory Traversal Vulnerability (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7850: remote config logfile-keyfile (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7849: trusted key use-after-free (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7848: mode 7 loop counter underrun (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7701: Slow memory leak in CRYPTO_ASSOC (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7703: configuration directives "pidfile" and "driftfile" should
     only be allowed locally (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7704, CVE-2015-7705: Clients that receive a KoD should validate
     the origin timestamp field (bsc#951608).
   - CVE-2015-7691, CVE-2015-7692, CVE-2015-7702: Incomplete autokey data
     packet length checks (bsc#951608).

   These non-security issues were fixed:
   - fate#320758 bsc#975981: Enable compile-time support for MS-SNTP
     (--enable-ntp-signd). This replaces the w32 patches in 4.2.4 that added
     the authreg directive.
   - bsc#962318: Call /usr/sbin/sntp with full path to synchronize in
     start-ntpd. When run as cron job, /usr/sbin/ is not in the path, which
     caused the synchronization to fail.
   - bsc#782060: Speedup ntpq.
   - bsc#916617: Add /var/db/ntp-kod.
   - bsc#956773: Add ntp-ENOBUFS.patch to limit a warning that might happen
     quite a lot on loaded systems.
   - bsc#951559,bsc#975496: Fix the TZ offset output of sntp during DST.
   - Add ntp-fork.patch and build with threads disabled to allow name
     resolution even when running chrooted.
   - Add a controlkey line to /etc/ntp.conf if one does not already exist to
     allow runtime configuuration via ntpq.
   - bsc#946386: Temporarily disable memlock to avoid problems due to high
     memory usage during name resolution.
   - bsc#905885: Use SHA1 instead of MD5 for symmetric keys.
   - 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.
   - bsc#944300: Remove "kod" from the restrict line in ntp.conf.
   - bsc#936327: Use ntpq instead of deprecated ntpdc in start-ntpd.
   - 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.
   - bsc#910063: Fix the comment regarding addserver in ntp.conf.
   - bsc#926510: Disable chroot by default.
   - bsc#920238: Enable ntpdc for backwards compatibility.
   - bsc#784760: Remove local clock from default configuration.
   - bsc#942441/fate#319496: Require perl-Socket6.
   - Improve runtime configuration:
     * Read keytype from ntp.conf
     * Don't write ntp keys to syslog.
   - bsc#920183: Allow -4 and -6 address qualifiers in "server" directives.
   - Use upstream ntp-wait, because our version is incompatible with the new
     ntpq command line syntax.
