CVE-2024-38528 Information

Description

nptd-rs is a tool for synchronizing your computer’s clock implementing the NTP and NTS protocols. There is a missing limit for accepted NTS-KE connections. This allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to crash ntpd-rs when an NTS-KE server is configured. Non NTS-KE server configurations such as the default ntpd-rs configuration are unaffected. This vulnerability has been patched in version 1.1.3.
