#44874: NTP needs to be upgraded urgently ---------------------+---------------------- Reporter: dave@… | Owner: dluke@… Type: update | Status: reopened Priority: High | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.3.1 Resolution: | Keywords: Port: ntp | ---------------------+---------------------- Changes (by dluke@…): * status: closed => reopened * resolution: fixed => Comment: Macports policy is to ship the latest stable upstream version. The conf file we have always shipped with ntp includes settings to prevent ntp from being used as a DDoS amplifier (you will note that the specific command in the CVE linked to is blocked from anything other than localhost) see also http://openntpproject.org. Do you have evidence of a new attack or that the conf we ship isn't effective? If not, I'm going to revert cal's changes in r125063 -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/44874#comment:5> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
