The reason for the crash is that ntp uses an outdated OpenSSL API to use MD5 
despite it normally being blocked in FIPS mode. This particular API has been 
deprecated with OpenSSL 3 which we ship in Jammy.
This could be mitigated by switching to a newer OpenSSL API, but ntp also seems 
to be on life support, is only available via Universe and was removed for 24.04.

I would recommend switching to another ntp implementation such as chrony
which is in main.
