An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2015-1799 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Ntp Ntp. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1799/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1799/index.md)","id":"CVE-2015-1799","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1799/index.md","name":"CVE-2015-1799","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2015-1799","GHSA-q9p8-4cvj-q5fj","UBUNTU-CVE-2015-1799"],"analysis":{"component_type":"server_software","fix_type":"upgrade","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"NTP daemon","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Man-in-the-middle attackers can cause denial of service in NTP by spoofing peer IP addresses to trigger synchronization loss.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"redhat","cpe":[{"product":"ntp","vendor":"ntp"}],"cvss":{"score":4.3,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"AV:A/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:P/A:P","version":"2.0"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-17","name":null}],"description":"The symmetric-key feature in the receive function in ntp_proto.c in ntpd in NTP 3.x and 4.x before 4.2.8p2 performs state-variable updates upon receiving certain invalid packets, which makes it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to cause a denial of service (synchronization loss) by spoofing the source IP address of a peer.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1799","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"ntp:ntp","products":["ntp:ntp"],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2015"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":25,"next":{"headline":"Information disclosure in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1800"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"Security feature bypass in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-1798"},"products":["n/a"],"published":"2015-04-08","related":[{"cvss_score":9.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2018-12327","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2018-06-20"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6460","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-27"},{"cvss_score":8.1,"headline":"Other in n/a","id":"CVE-2019-11331","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2019-04-18"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6451","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-27"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6452","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-27"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Memory corruption in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-6462","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-03-27"},{"cvss_score":7.5,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2015-7978","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-01-30"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2024-08-06","vendors":["n/a"]},"summary":"Man-in-the-middle attackers can cause denial of service in NTP by spoofing peer IP addresses to trigger synchronization loss.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2015-1799/"}
