Title:Fedora: Security Advisory for ntp-refclock (FEDORA-2023-c0762a0e57)
Summary:The remote host is missing an update for the 'ntp-refclock'; package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2023-c0762a0e57 advisory.
Description:Summary:
The remote host is missing an update for the 'ntp-refclock'
package(s) announced via the FEDORA-2023-c0762a0e57 advisory.

Vulnerability Insight:
ntp-refclock is a wrapper for reference clock drivers included in the ntpd
daemon, which enables other NTP implementations to use the supported hardware
reference clocks for synchronization of the system clock.

It provides a minimal environment for the drivers to be able to run in a
separate process, measuring the offset of the system clock relative to the
reference clock and sending the measurements to another process controlling
the system clock.

Affected Software/OS:
'ntp-refclock' package(s) on Fedora 37.

Solution:
Please install the updated package(s).

CVSS Score:
