Multiple Vulnerabilities in Network Time Protocol Daemon Affecting Cisco Products: November 2016
Multiple Cisco products incorporate a version of the Network Time Protocol daemon (ntpd) package. Versions of this package are affected by one or more vulnerabilities that could allow an unauthenticated, remote attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) condition or modify the time being advertised by a device acting as a Network Time Protocol (NTP) server.
On November 21, 2016, the NTP Consortium of the Network Time Foundation released a security notice that details ten issues regarding DoS vulnerabilities and logic issues that may allow an attacker to shift a system's time.

ntp: Client rate limiting and server responses
NTP before 4.2.8p9 rate limits responses received from the configured sources when rate limiting for all associations is enabled, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (prevent responses from the sources) by sending responses with a spoofed source address.
It was found that when ntp is configured with rate limiting for all associations the limits are also applied to responses received from its configured sources. A remote attacker who knows the sources can cause a denial of service by preventing ntpd from accepting valid responses from its sources.
Mitigation: If you choose to use restrict default limited ..., be sure to use restrict source ... (without limited) to avoid this attack.

CVE-2016-7426 ntp: Client rate limiting and server responses
bugzilla·2016-11-22·CVSS 7.5
CVE-2016-7426 [HIGH] CVE-2016-7426 ntp: Client rate limiting and server responses
CVE-2016-7426 ntp: Client rate limiting and server responses
When ntpd is configured with rate limiting for all associations (restrict default limited in ntp.conf), the limits are applied also to responses received from its configured sources. An attacker who knows the sources (e.g., from an IPv4 refid in server response) and knows the system is (mis)configured in this way can periodically send packets with spoofed source address to keep the rate limiting activated and prevent ntpd from accepting valid responses from its sources.
