Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was determined in allegro up to bcf65b994ef29fb3fc2e10b660e6288723d5209e. This impacts the function AssetLastHostname.increment_hostname of the file src/ralph/assets/models/assets.py of the component Hostname Allocation Handler. Executing a manipulation of the argument counter can lead to race condition. Attacks of this nature are highly complex. The exploitability is said to be difficult. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. The project was informed of the problem early through an issue report but has not responded yet.
AnalysisAI
Race condition in Allegro Ralph's hostname allocation handler allows adjacent, low-privileged attackers to corrupt hostname assignment logic, producing duplicate or incorrect hostname entries. The flaw resides in the AssetLastHostname.increment_hostname function within src/ralph/assets/models/assets.py, where concurrent manipulation of the counter argument creates a time-of-check/time-of-use window. The project maintainers were notified via an issue report but have not yet responded, leaving no available patch; a proof-of-concept exploit has been publicly disclosed on GitHub. No public exploit identified at time of analysis beyond the PoC, and KEV status is not confirmed.
Technical ContextAI
Ralph is an open-source Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) and asset management platform developed by Allegro, the Polish e-commerce company. The vulnerable component is the Hostname Allocation Handler, specifically the AssetLastHostname.increment_hostname function in the Python file src/ralph/assets/models/assets.py. CWE-362 (Concurrent Execution Using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization - Race Condition) identifies the root cause: the counter variable governing hostname suffix increments is accessed by multiple concurrent threads or processes without adequate locking, allowing interleaved execution paths to produce inconsistent counter state. The CPE string cpe:2.3:a:n/a:allegro:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:* covers all versions up to and including commit bcf65b994ef29fb3fc2e10b660e6288723d5209e. The tags include 'Information Disclosure' alongside 'Race Condition', suggesting the corrupted hostname state may expose internal naming conventions or asset enumeration data beyond just integrity corruption.
RemediationAI
No vendor-released patch identified at time of analysis - the project maintainers have not yet responded to the disclosure. As a primary compensating control, administrators should restrict access to Ralph's hostname allocation functionality to the minimum set of authenticated users, reducing the pool of potential concurrent actors who could trigger the race. Network-level controls should enforce strict adjacency boundaries so that only trusted internal segments can reach the Ralph service, limiting the effective attack surface per the AV:A vector. Reviewing and enforcing application-level rate limiting or serialization on hostname allocation requests (e.g., via Django's database-level select_for_update() locking or Redis-based distributed locks around the increment_hostname call) would directly neutralize the race window and is the recommended interim mitigation. Monitor the GitHub issue at https://github.com/allegro/ralph/issues/3950 for an upstream fix. Operators may also consider pinning to the last known-good commit prior to bcf65b994ef29fb3fc2e10b660e6288723d5209e, though no clean prior boundary has been confirmed.
