Security Bulletin: Vulnerabilities in ntp affect Power Hardware Management Console (CVE-2015-5300, CVE-2015-7704, CVE-2015-8138)

Vulnerability Details

CVEID: CVE-2015-5300
DESCRIPTION: Network Time Protocol (NTP) could allow a remote attacker to bypass security restrictions, caused by the failure to correctly implement the threshold limitation for the '-g' option. An attacker could exploit this vulnerability using man-in-the-middle techniques to intercept NTP traffic and make multiple steps larger than the panic threshold.
