Re: ntpd vulnerabilities

As a practical matter, is the default config vulnerable to the buffer
overflow issues?

The announcement:

http://lists.ntp.org/pipermail/announce/2014-December/000122.html

says that "restrict ... noquery" is sufficient mitigation for the 3
buffer overflow issues. I'm no expert on ntp.conf, but this appears in
my ntp.conf on one of my FreeBSD systems:

restrict default kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery
restrict -6 default kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery

However, it also has these:

restrict 127.0.0.1
restrict -6 ::1
restrict 127.127.1.0
