Security update of ntp



Hi Kurt

As a member of the LTS team I have started to look into a ntp security update of CVE-2016-4953 mentioned here:
https://security-tracker.debian.org/tracker/source-package/ntp

I see that you have prepared security updates for Debian wheezy in the past so I would like to check with you if you want to do it this time too, or if you'd like me to do that for you.

Or alternatively that you know it is a non-issue already.

I can see the following comment about jessie in the security tracker:
[jessie] - ntp <not-affected> (Fix for CVE-2016-1547 or CVE-2015-7979 wasn't backported)

But it looks like ntp-4.2.6p5-cve-2015-7979.patch is in the wheezy version so I guess it is affected, or?

I have not looked into the details yet as I want to check with you first whether you know about this already (I guess you do).

Best regards

// Ola
