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.
