CVE-2016-2519medium
New! CVE Severity Now Using CVSS v3
The calculated severity for CVEs has been updated to use CVSS v3 by default. CVEs that do not have a CVSS v3 score will fall back CVSS v2 for calculating severity. Severity display preferences can be toggled in the settings dropdown.
Description
ntpd in NTP before 4.2.8p7 and 4.3.x before 4.3.92 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (ntpd abort) by a large request data value, which triggers the ctl_getitem function to return a NULL value.
