Описание
A flaw was found in the ptp4l program of the linuxptp package. When ptp4l is operating on a little-endian architecture as a PTP transparent clock, a remote attacker could send a crafted one-step sync message to cause an information leak or crash. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to data confidentiality and system availability. This flaw affects linuxptp versions before 3.1.1 and before 2.0.1.

Отчет
This flaw has been rated as having a Moderate impact. The information leak is probably not very useful on its own as ptp4l doesn't handle any confidential data like passwords or private keys.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Only attackers that can connect to the ptp4l service can exploit this vulnerability. If ptp4l is bound only to a private network interface, or is protected by firewall rules to block incoming PTP management messages, the attack surface is correspondingly limited. When using the UDP IPv4 or IPv6 network transport, the following tcpdump filter can be used to detect PTP management messages:
