"ntpd in ntp 4.2.x before 4.2.8p7 allows authenticated users that know
the private symmetric key to create arbitrarily-many ephemeral
associations in order to win the clock selection of ntpd and modify a
victim's clock via a Sybil attack. This issue exists because of an
incomplete fix for CVE-2016-1549 .(CVE-2018-7170)

The ntpq and ntpdc command-line utilities that are part of ntp package
are vulnerable to stack-based buffer overflow via crafted hostname.
Applications using these vulnerable utilities with an untrusted input
may be potentially exploited, resulting in a crash or arbitrary code
execution under privileges of that application.(CVE-2018-12327)"
