Attack Technique

Race conditions occur when multiple concurrent requests exploit the brief time gap between checking a condition and acting upon it (TOCTOU - Time of Check, Time of Use).

Denial of Service attacks render applications or systems unavailable by overwhelming resources or triggering failure conditions.
