CWE-362

Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

ClassDraftLikelihood: Medium

Description

The product contains a concurrent code sequence that requires temporary, exclusive access to a shared resource, but a timing window exists in which the shared resource can be modified by another code sequence operating concurrently.

CVE-2013-51470.030.00Sep 19, 2013Passcode Lock in Apple iOS before 7 does not properly manage the lock state, which allows physically proximate attackers to bypass an intended passcode requirement by leveraging a race condition involving phone calls and ejection of a SIM card.

CVE-2010-29610.030.00Sep 14, 2010mountall.c in mountall before 2.15.2 uses 0666 permissions for the root.rules file, which allows local users to gain privileges by modifying this file.
CVE-2010-18880.030.01Aug 11, 2010Race condition in the kernel in Microsoft Windows XP SP3 allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving thread creation, aka "Windows Kernel Data Initialization Vulnerability."
CVE-2010-04890.030.35Mar 31, 2010Race condition in Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.01 SP4, 6, 6 SP1, and 7 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted HTML document that triggers memory corruption, aka "Race Condition Memory Corruption Vulnerability."
CVE-2009-35270.030.00Oct 6, 2009Race condition in the Pipe (IPC) close function in FreeBSD 6.3 and 6.4 allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash) or gain privileges via vectors related to kqueues, which triggers a use after free, leading to a NULL pointer dereference or memory corruption.
CVE-2009-18940.030.00Jul 17, 2009Race condition in PulseAudio 0.9.9, 0.9.10, and 0.9.14 allows local users to gain privileges via vectors involving creation of a hard link, related to the application setting LD_BIND_NOW to 1, and then calling execv on the target of the /proc/self/exe symlink.
CVE-2009-17860.030.00May 26, 2009The malloc subsystem in libc in IBM AIX 5.3 and 6.1 allows local users to create or overwrite arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the log file associated with the MALLOCDEBUG environment variable.
CVE-2009-15270.030.00May 5, 2009Race condition in the ptrace_attach function in kernel/ptrace.c in the Linux kernel before 2.6.30-rc4 allows local users to gain privileges via a PTRACE_ATTACH ptrace call during an exec system call that is launching a setuid application, related to locking an incorrect cred_exec_mutex object.
CVE-2009-12380.030.00Apr 2, 2009Race condition in the HFS vfs sysctl interface in XNU 1228.8.20 and earlier on Apple Mac OS X 10.5.6 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (kernel memory corruption) by simultaneously executing the same HFS_SET_PKG_EXTENSIONS code path in multiple threads, which is problematic because of lack of mutex locking for an unspecified global variable.
CVE-2008-50440.030.01Nov 12, 2008Race condition in Microsoft Windows Server 2003 and Vista allows local users to cause a denial of service (crash or hang) via a multi-threaded application that makes many calls to UnhookWindowsHookEx while certain other desktop activity is occurring.

NOTE: this issue might only affect kernel versions before 2.6.16.x.
CVE-2006-51780.030.00Oct 10, 2006Race condition in the symlink function in PHP 5.1.6 and earlier allows local users to bypass the open_basedir restriction by using a combination of symlink, mkdir, and unlink functions to change the file path after the open_basedir check and before the file is opened by the underlying system, as demonstrated by symlinking a symlink into a subdirectory, to point to a parent directory via .. (dot dot) sequences, and then unlinking the resulting symlink.
CVE-2004-26970.030.01Dec 31, 2004The Inventory Scout daemon (invscoutd) 1.3.0.0 and 2.0.2 for AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1 allows local users to gain privileges via a symlink attack on a command line argument (log file). NOTE: this might be related to CVE-2006-5002.
CVE-2004-26980.030.00Dec 31, 2004Race condition in IMWheel 1.0.0pre11 and earlier, when running with the -k option, allows local users to cause a denial of service (IMWheel crash) and possibly modify arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the imwheel.pid file.
CVE-2000-08640.030.00Nov 14, 2000Race condition in the creation of a Unix domain socket in GNOME esound 0.2.19 and earlier allows a local user to change the permissions of arbitrary files and directories, and gain additional privileges, via a symlink attack.

CVE-2015-84610.010.16Dec 16, 2015Race condition in resolver.c in named in ISC BIND 9.9.8 before 9.9.8-P2 and 9.10.3 before 9.10.3-P2 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (INSIST assertion failure and daemon exit) via unspecified vectors.
CVE-2015-31960.010.07Dec 6, 2015ssl/s3_clnt.c in OpenSSL 1.0.0 before 1.0.0t, 1.0.1 before 1.0.1p, and 1.0.2 before 1.0.2d, when used for a multi-threaded client, writes the PSK identity hint to an incorrect data structure, which allows remote servers to cause a denial of service (race condition and double free) via a crafted ServerKeyExchange message.
