The version of the remote NTP server is 3.x or 4.x prior to 4.2.8p7.
It is, therefore, affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     validation of the origin timestamp field when handling a     Kiss-of-Death (KoD) packet. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to cause a client to stop     querying its servers, preventing the client from     updating its clock. (CVE-2015-7704)

  - A flaw exists in the receive() function in ntp_proto.c     that allows packets with an origin timestamp of zero to     bypass security checks. An unauthenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to spoof arbitrary content.
    (CVE-2015-8138)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of a crafted Crypto NAK Packet with a source     address spoofed to match that of an existing associated     peer. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to demobilize a client association. (CVE-2016-1547)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of packets spoofed to appear to be from a valid     ntpd server. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can     exploit this to cause NTP to switch from basic     client/server mode to interleaved symmetric mode,     causing the client to reject future legitimate     responses. (CVE-2016-1548)

  - A race condition exists that is triggered during the     handling of a saturation of ephemeral associations. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to     defeat NTP's clock selection algorithm and modify a     user's clock. (CVE-2016-1549)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     message authentication functionality in libntp that is     triggered during the handling of a series of specially     crafted messages. An adjacent attacker can exploit this     to partially recover the message digest key.
    (CVE-2016-1550)

  - A flaw exists due to improper filtering of IPv4 'bogon'     packets received from a network. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to spoof packets to     appear to come from a specific reference clock.
    (CVE-2016-1551)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows an     authenticated, remote attacker that has knowledge of the     controlkey for ntpq or the requestkey for ntpdc to     create a session with the same IP twice on an     unconfigured directive line, causing ntpd to abort.
    (CVE-2016-2516)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows an     authenticated, remote attacker to manipulate the value     of the trustedkey, controlkey, or requestkey via a     crafted packet, preventing authentication with ntpd     until the daemon has been restarted. (CVE-2016-2517)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the MATCH_ASSOC()     function that occurs during the creation of peer     associations with hmode greater than 7. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted packet, to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2016-2518)

  - An overflow condition exists in the ctl_getitem()     function in ntpd due to improper validation of     user-supplied input when reporting return values. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause     ntpd to abort. (CVE-2016-2519)

ntp was updated to version 4.2.8p8 to fix 17 security issues.

These security issues were fixed :

  - CVE-2016-4956: Broadcast interleave (bsc#982068).

  - CVE-2016-2518: Crafted addpeer with hmode > 7 causes     array wraparound with MATCH_ASSOC (bsc#977457).

  - CVE-2016-2519: ctl_getitem() return value not always     checked (bsc#977458).

  - CVE-2016-4954: Processing spoofed server packets     (bsc#982066).

  - CVE-2016-4955: Autokey association reset (bsc#982067).

  - CVE-2015-7974: NTP did not verify peer associations of     symmetric keys when authenticating packets, which might     allowed remote attackers to conduct impersonation     attacks via an arbitrary trusted key, aka a 'skeleton     key (bsc#962960).

  - CVE-2016-4957: CRYPTO_NAK crash (bsc#982064).

  - CVE-2016-2516: Duplicate IPs on unconfig directives will     cause an assertion botch (bsc#977452).

  - CVE-2016-2517: Remote configuration     trustedkey/requestkey values are not properly validated     (bsc#977455).

  - CVE-2016-4953: Bad authentication demobilizes ephemeral     associations (bsc#982065).

  - CVE-2016-1547: CRYPTO-NAK DoS (bsc#977459).

  - CVE-2016-1551: Refclock impersonation vulnerability,     AKA: refclock-peering (bsc#977450).

  - CVE-2016-1550: Improve NTP security against buffer     comparison timing attacks, authdecrypt-timing, AKA:
    authdecrypt-timing (bsc#977464).

  - CVE-2016-1548: Interleave-pivot - MITIGATION ONLY     (bsc#977461).

  - CVE-2016-1549: Sybil vulnerability: ephemeral     association attack, AKA: ntp-sybil - MITIGATION ONLY     (bsc#977451).

This release also contained improved patches for CVE-2015-7704, CVE-2015-7705, CVE-2015-7974.

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.

According to its self-reported version number, the version of Junos Space running on the remote device is < 17.1R1, and is therefore affected by multiple vulnerabilities.

The version of NTP installed on the remote AIX host is affected by the following vulnerabilities :

  - A time serving flaw exists in the trusted key system     due to improper key checks. An authenticated, remote     attacker can exploit this to perform impersonation     attacks between authenticated peers. (CVE-2015-7974)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists due to improper     handling of a crafted Crypto NAK Packet with a source     address spoofed to match that of an existing associated     peer. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this to demobilize a client association. (CVE-2016-1547)

  - An information disclosure vulnerability exists in the     message authentication functionality in libntp that is     triggered during the handling of a series of specially     crafted messages. An adjacent attacker can exploit this     to partially recover the message digest key.
    (CVE-2016-1550)

  - A flaw exists due to improper filtering of IPv4 'bogon'     packets received from a network. An unauthenticated,     remote attacker can exploit this to spoof packets to     appear to come from a specific reference clock.
    (CVE-2016-1551)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists that allows an     authenticated, remote attacker to manipulate the value     of the trustedkey, controlkey, or requestkey via a     crafted packet, preventing authentication with ntpd     until the daemon has been restarted. (CVE-2016-2517)

  - An out-of-bounds read error exists in the MATCH_ASSOC()     function that occurs during the creation of peer     associations with hmode greater than 7. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this, via a     specially crafted packet, to cause a denial of service.
    (CVE-2016-2518)

  - An overflow condition exists in the ctl_getitem()     function in ntpd due to improper validation of     user-supplied input when reporting return values. An     authenticated, remote attacker can exploit this to cause     ntpd to abort. (CVE-2016-2519)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling     authentication due to improper packet timestamp checks.
    An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit this,     via a specially crafted and spoofed packet, to     demobilize the ephemeral associations. (CVE-2016-4953)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling spoofed     packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via specially crafted packets, to affect peer     variables (e.g., cause leap indications to be set). Note     that the attacker must be able to spoof packets with     correct origin timestamps from servers before expected     response packets arrive. (CVE-2016-4954)

  - A flaw exists that is triggered when handling spoofed     packets. An unauthenticated, remote attacker can exploit     this, via specially crafted packets, to reset autokey     associations. Note that the attacker must be able to     spoof packets with correct origin timestamps from     servers before expected response packets arrive.
    (CVE-2016-4955)

  - A denial of service vulnerability exists when handling     CRYPTO_NAK packets that allows an unauthenticated,     remote attacker to cause a crash. (CVE-2016-4957)

CVE-2015-7973: Replay attack on authenticated broadcast mode (bsc#962995).

CVE-2015-5300: MITM attacker can force ntpd to make a step larger than the panic threshold (bsc#951629).

CVE-2015-5194: Crash with crafted logconfig configuration command (bsc#943218).

CVE-2015-7871: NAK to the Future: Symmetric association authentication bypass via crypto-NAK (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7855: decodenetnum() will ASSERT botch instead of returning FAIL on some bogus values (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7854: Password Length Memory Corruption Vulnerability (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7853: Invalid length data provided by a custom refclock driver could cause a buffer overflow (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7852: ntpq atoascii() Memory Corruption Vulnerability (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7851: saveconfig Directory Traversal Vulnerability (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7850: Clients that receive a KoD now validate the origin timestamp field (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7849: Prevent use-after-free trusted key (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7848: Prevent mode 7 loop counter underrun (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7701: Slow memory leak in CRYPTO_ASSOC (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7703: Configuration directives 'pidfile' and 'driftfile' should only be allowed locally (bsc#943221).

CVE-2015-7704: Clients that receive a KoD should validate the origin timestamp field (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7705: Clients that receive a KoD should validate the origin timestamp field (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7691: Incomplete autokey data packet length checks (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7692: Incomplete autokey data packet length checks (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-7702: Incomplete autokey data packet length checks (bsc#952611).

CVE-2015-1798: The symmetric-key feature in the receive function in ntp_proto.c in ntpd in NTP required a correct MAC only if the MAC field has a nonzero length, which made it easier for man-in-the-middle attackers to spoof packets by omitting the MAC (bsc#924202).

CVE-2015-1799: The symmetric-key feature in the receive function in ntp_proto.c in ntpd in NTP performed state-variable updates upon receiving certain invalid packets, which made 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 (bsc#924202).

The update package also includes non-security fixes. See advisory for details.
