Description
Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Microsoft Input Method Editor (IME) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.
Analysis
Concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization ('race condition') in Microsoft Input Method Editor (IME) allows an authorized attacker to elevate privileges over a network.
Technical Context
A race condition occurs when the behavior of software depends on the timing of events, such as the order of execution of threads or processes.
Affected Products
Affected products: Microsoft Windows 10 1507, Microsoft Windows 10 1607, Microsoft Windows 10 1809
Remediation
Use proper synchronization mechanisms (locks, mutexes, atomic operations). Implement file locking for filesystem operations. Avoid TOCTOU patterns.
