Estimad@s,

Años atras, haciendo port-scanning de redes encontramos que podiamos obtener mucha mas información sobre clientes NTP de lo que deberia poder ser necesario.

Fue entonces que junto con Guillermo Gont (SI6 Networks) y Miroslav Lichvar (RedHat) escribimos este documento para cambiar la especificaciòn de NTP para mejorar la seguridad del mismo para todos y todas.

Hoy se publicó el resultado del trabajo en cuestión, como RFC 9109, que en mi caso realice en su momento para mi entonces empleador (SI6 Networks).

El RFC esta disponible en: https://www.rfc-editor.org/info/rfc9109

En lo personal, considero que la parte mas importante del documento son los Acknowledgements:

   Fernando Gont would like to thank Nelida Garcia and Jorge Oscar Gont
   for their love and support.


Mis agradecimientos a ellos, quienes brindaron el contexto necesario que eventualmente posibilitó las pequeñas contribuciones de quien suscribe (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss5Snx_ZLuo).

Y mis agredicimientos a Diego Maradona, por cosas algo mas complejas como para explicar en dos o tres lineas de texto (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JwqAG4XWLpQ9)

No fue magia,
Fernando

The Network Time Protocol (NTP) can operate in several modes.  Some
of these modes are based on the receipt of unsolicited packets and
therefore require the use of a well-known port as the local port. However, in the case of NTP modes where the use of a well-known port
is not required, employing such a well-known port unnecessarily
facilitates the ability of attackers to perform blind/off-path
attacks. This document formally updates RFC 5905, recommending the
use of transport-protocol ephemeral port randomization for those
modes where use of the NTP well-known port is not required.

This document is a product of the Network Time Protocol Working Group of the IETF.

This is now a Proposed Standard.

STANDARDS TRACK: This document specifies an Internet Standards Track
protocol for the Internet community, and requests discussion and suggestions
for improvements.  Please refer to the current edition of the Official
Internet Protocol Standards (https://www.rfc-editor.org/standards) for the standardization state and status of this protocol. Distribution of this memo is unlimited.
