Apple has released security updates for OS X Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite to address multiple vulnerabilities 
in the Network Time Protocol daemon. Exploitation of these vulnerabilities may allow a remote attacker to take control 
of a vulnerable system.

US-CERT encourages users and administrators to review Apple Security Update HT6601 [ 
http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT6601 ] and Vulnerability Note VU#852879 [ http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/852879 ] for
