I'd like to propose that FreeBSD move to OpenNTPD, which appears to have none of the fixed or unfixed (!) vulnerabilities that are present in ntpd. There's already a port.

Chances are good it is vulnerable:

Regarding the diff:

 diff -ru ntp-dev-4.2.7p486-RC ntp-4.2.8 |wc -l
    7723

Cherry picking the patches is easier.

ntpd source trees:

http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/ntp-dev/ <http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/ntp-dev/> http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/ntp-4.2/ <http://www.eecis.udel.edu/~ntp/ntp_spool/ntp4/ntp-4.2/>

Luckily that is still up… atm ntp.org is down.
Here is the cached version of the notice: http://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:support.ntp.org/bin/view/Main/SecurityNotice
