Race 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.
Search vulnerabilities
Unrestricted file upload vulnerability in RADactive I-Load before 2008.2.5.0 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code by uploading a file with an executable extension, and then sending a request for a predictable filename during a short time window.
Race condition in Login Window in Apple Mac OS X 10.6.x before 10.6.2, when at least one account has a blank password, allows attackers to bypass password authentication and obtain login access to an arbitrary account via unspecified vectors.
The Exchange Support component in Apple iPhone OS before 3.1, and iPhone OS before 3.1.1 for iPod touch, does not properly implement the "Maximum inactivity time lock" functionality, which allows local users to bypass intended Microsoft Exchange restrictions by choosing a large Require Passcode time value.
Multiple race conditions in the Solaris Event Port API in Sun Solaris 10 and OpenSolaris before snv_107 allow local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified vectors related to a race between the port_dissociate and close functions.
Race 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.
inetd on Sun Solaris 10, when debug logging is enabled, allows local users to write to arbitrary files via a symlink attack on the /var/tmp/inetd.log temporary file.
kernel: add rcu_read_lock() to fcheck() in both dnotify, locks.c and fix fcntl store/load race in locks.c
Linux kernel before 2.6.25.2 does not apply a certain protection mechanism for fcntl functionality, which allows local users to (1) execute code in parallel or (2) exploit a race condition to obtain "re-ordered access to the descriptor table."
Race condition in the create_lockpath function in policyd-weight 0.1.14 beta-16 allows local users to modify or delete arbitrary files by creating the LOCKPATH directory, then modifying it after the symbolic link check occurs. NOTE: this is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2008-1569.
Multiple race conditions in the CPU Performance Counters (cpc) subsystem in the kernel in Sun Solaris 10 allow local users to cause a denial of service (panic) via unspecified vectors related to kcpc_unbind and kcpc_restore.
Race condition in NSXML in Foundation for Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 allows context-dependent attackers to execute arbitrary code via a crafted XML file, related to "error handling logic."
Race condition in the NSURLConnection cache management functionality in Foundation for Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code via unspecified manipulations that cause messages to be sent to a deallocated object.
Foundation in Apple Mac OS X 10.4.11 creates world-writable directories while NSFileManager copies files recursively and only modifies the permissions afterward, which allows local users to modify copied files to cause a denial of service and possibly gain privileges.
The session fixation protection mechanism in cgi_process.rb in Rails 1.2.4, as used in Ruby on Rails, removes the :cookie_only attribute from the DEFAULT_SESSION_OPTIONS constant, which effectively causes cookie_only to be applied only to the first instantiation of CgiRequest, which allows remote attackers to conduct session fixation attacks. NOTE: this is due to an incomplete fix for CVE-2007-5380.
Juju API Server Denial of Service and Authentication Replay via Unsynchronized Token Map
Improper synchronization of the userTokens map in the API server in Canonical Juju 4.0.5, 3.6.20, and 2.9.56 may allow an authenticated user to possibly cause a denial of service on the server or possibly reuse a single-use discharge token.
webkitgtk: Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to an unexpected process crash
A race condition was addressed with improved state handling. This issue is fixed in Safari 26.2, iOS 18.7.3 and iPadOS 18.7.3, iOS 26.2 and iPadOS 26.2, macOS Tahoe 26.2, tvOS 26.2, visionOS 26.2, watchOS 26.2. Processing maliciously crafted web content may lead to an unexpected process crash.
Oxia: Server crash via race condition in session heartbeat handling
Oxia is a metadata store and coordination system. Prior to 0.16.2, a race condition between session heartbeat processing and session closure can cause the server to panic with send on closed channel. The heartbeat() method uses a blocking channel send while holding a mutex, and under specific timing with concurrent close() calls, this can lead to either a deadlock (channel buffer full) or a panic (send on closed channel after TOCTOU gap in KeepAlive). This vulnerability is fixed in 0.16.2.
Windows Device Association Service Elevation of Privilege Vulnerability
Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Windows Device Association Service allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges locally.
gpiolib: fix race condition for gdev->srcu
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gpiolib: fix race condition for gdev->srcu If two drivers were calling gpiochip_add_data_with_key(), one may be traversing the srcu-protected list in gpio_name_to_desc(), meanwhile other has just added its gdev in gpiodev_add_to_list_unlocked(). This creates a non-mutexed and non-protected timeframe, when one instance is dereferencing and using &gdev->srcu, before the other has initialized it, resulting in crash: [ 4.935481] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff800272bcc000 [ 4.943396] Mem abort info: [ 4.943400] ESR = 0x0000000096000005 [ 4.943403] EC = 0x25: DABT (current EL), IL = 32 bits [ 4.943407] SET = 0, FnV = 0 [ 4.943410] EA = 0, S1PTW = 0 [ 4.943413] FSC = 0x05: level 1 translation fault [ 4.943416] Data abort info: [ 4.943418] ISV = 0, ISS = 0x00000005, ISS2 = 0x00000000 [ 4.946220] CM = 0, WnR = 0, TnD = 0, TagAccess = 0 [ 4.955261] GCS = 0, Overlay = 0, DirtyBit = 0, Xs = 0 [ 4.955268] swapper pgtable: 4k pages, 48-bit VAs, pgdp=0000000038e6c000 [ 4.961449] [ffff800272bcc000] pgd=0000000000000000 [ 4.969203] , p4d=1000000039739003 [ 4.979730] , pud=0000000000000000 [ 4.980210] phandle (CPU): 0x0000005e, phandle (BE): 0x5e000000 for node "reset" [ 4.991736] Internal error: Oops: 0000000096000005 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ...

kernel: pty layer race condition leading to memory corruption
The n_tty_write function in drivers/tty/n_tty.c in the Linux kernel through 3.14.3 does not properly manage tty driver access in the "LECHO & !OPOST" case, which allows local users to cause a denial of service (memory corruption and system crash) or gain privileges by triggering a race condition involving read and write operations with long strings.
