NTP users are strongly urged to take immediate action to ensure that their NTP daemons are not susceptible to being used in distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks. Please also take this opportunity to defeat denial-of-service attacks by implementing Ingress and Egress filtering through BCP38.

ntp-4.2.8p15 was released on 23 June 2020. It addresses 1 medium-severity security issue in ntpd, and provides 13 non-security bugfixes over 4.2.8p13.

Please see the NTP Security Notice for vulnerability and mitigation details.

Once you clone a repository and cd into it, there are a number of commands that will print meta-information about that repository, such as:

 $ bk root            # root directory of repo
 $ bk parent          # name (URL) of parent repo
 $ bk id              # package identity
 $ bk id -r           # repository identity
 $ bk status [-v]     # repo status (optionally verbose)
 $ bk users           # people who have made mods to this package
 $ bk level           # repo level number (can be used to set as well)
 $ bk sane            # verify that this repo is well-structured

Note that all of the above should work, even if you're not at the absolute root of the clone, and even before you've checked out any files. (Feel free to add more commands to this list.)
