Note from the SUSE Security Team

This can be fixed by adjusting /etc/ntp.conf file by adding lines: 

restrict default kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery
restrict -6 default kod nomodify notrap nopeer noquery
. We are currently evaluating if this can be fixed by a package update, without touching existing administrator modified configuration files.
