Title:	Debian: Security Advisory (DLA-742-1)
Summary:	The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'chrony' package(s) announced via the DLA-742-1 advisory.
Description:	Summary: The remote host is missing an update for the Debian 'chrony' package(s) announced via the DLA-742-1 advisory. Vulnerability Insight: It was discovered that Chrony, a versatile implementation of the Network Time Protocol, did not verify peer associations of symmetric keys when authenticating packets, which might allow remote attackers to conduct impersonation attacks via an arbitrary trusted key, aka a 'skeleton key.' This update also resolves Debian bug #568492. For Debian 7 Wheezy, these problems have been fixed in version 1.24-3.1+deb7u4. We recommend that you upgrade your chrony packages.
