NTP 4.2.4p7, 2009/05/04
Focus: Security and Bug Fixes
Severity: HIGH
This release fixes the following high-severity vulnerability:
* [Sec 1151] Remote exploit if autokey is enabled.  CVE-2009-1252
  See http://support.ntp.org/security for more information.
  If autokey is enabled (if ntp.conf contains a "crypto pw whatever"
  line) then a carefully crafted packet sent to the machine will cause
  a buffer overflow and possible execution of injected code, running
  with the privileges of the ntpd process (often root).
  Credit for finding this vulnerability goes to Chris Ries of CMU.

  Credit for finding this issue goes to Dave Hart.
