Local privilege escalation in the Windows Backup Engine affects Windows 10 (21H2, 22H2) and Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1), where a race condition (CWE-362) lets an already-authenticated low-privileged user win a timing window to elevate to higher privileges. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.0 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L), reflecting local access and high attack complexity but full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available from Microsoft.
Denial of service in Hoverfly's Diff mode (versions ≤ 1.12.7) lets any client with proxy access crash the entire process by sending concurrent requests. The `AddDiff()` function writes to the shared `responsesDiff` map without a mutex, so simultaneous proxy requests - the normal case for a proxy - trigger Go's built-in concurrent-map detector, producing an unrecoverable `fatal error: concurrent map read and map write` that kills the process. Publicly available exploit code exists (a working POC is embedded in the GitHub advisory), though there is no public exploit identified as actively used in the wild and no KEV listing.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Wireless Networking component affects a broad span of currently supported Windows releases (Windows 10 1809 through Windows 11 26H1, and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025), letting an already-authenticated local user win a timing race to gain SYSTEM-level control. The flaw is a CWE-362 race condition where improperly synchronized access to a shared resource can be manipulated during a narrow execution window; CVSS 7.8 reflects a high-complexity but high-impact local escalation with a scope change. Microsoft (the reporter) has shipped a patch, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Elevation of privilege in the Windows SMB implementation allows an authenticated network attacker to win a race condition and gain higher privileges on affected systems, spanning Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025. The flaw is a concurrency defect (CWE-362) reported by Microsoft with a vendor patch already released; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Note a data conflict: the description and CVSS impacts describe privilege elevation with full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact, while the intelligence tags also label it 'Information Disclosure' — the CVSS vector should be treated as authoritative.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) component of Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2022/2025 lets an already-authenticated local user race a shared resource to gain higher privileges. Microsoft (the reporting vendor) has shipped fixes; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as none, though the technical impact is total. EPSS is low at 0.24% (16th percentile), consistent with a high-complexity local flaw rather than a mass-exploited network bug.
Remote code execution in Microsoft's Windows Network File System (NFS) server role affects a broad range of Windows client and server builds from Windows Server 2012 through Windows Server 2025 and Windows 10/11. An unauthenticated network attacker who wins a race condition in a shared NFS resource can execute arbitrary code on the target. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as none; EPSS is low at 0.64% (47th percentile), consistent with the high attack complexity of racing the vulnerable code path.
Remote code execution in the Microsoft Windows network driver affects a broad range of Windows client and server builds (Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1, and Windows Server 2012 through Windows Server 2025), where a race condition (CWE-362) in the shared network driver lets an unauthenticated network attacker who wins a timing window run arbitrary code with full system impact. Microsoft has shipped fixes and rates it 8.1 with high attack complexity; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC lists exploitation status as none, though the flaw is assessed as automatable with total technical impact. The EPSS probability is low (1.00%, 59th percentile), consistent with the high-complexity, not-yet-exploited profile.
Local privilege escalation in Windows Runtime (WinRT) across Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2019 through 2025 allows an already-authenticated attacker to win a race condition and gain SYSTEM-level privileges. The flaw stems from concurrent access to a shared resource without proper synchronization, and full C:H/I:H/A:H impact indicates complete host compromise once triggered. Reported by Microsoft with a patch available; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Media component of Windows 11 (versions 24H2, 25H2, and 26H1) lets an already-authenticated, low-privileged user win a race condition to elevate to higher privileges on the local machine. Reported by Microsoft and carrying CVSS 7.0, it has an SSVC technical impact of 'total' but an SSVC exploitation status of 'none' and a low EPSS of 0.24% (16th percentile); a vendor patch is available and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Telephony Service (TAPI) affects a broad range of Microsoft Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2012 through Server 2025. A local, low-privileged attacker who wins a race condition (CWE-362) in the service's handling of a shared resource can corrupt state and elevate to higher privileges, gaining full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the host. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not on CISA KEV; EPSS was not provided.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows NTFS file system driver lets an authenticated low-privileged user win a race condition (CWE-362) to gain SYSTEM-level rights across nearly all supported Windows client and server builds, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. Microsoft has shipped fixes and publicly available exploit code exists, though EPSS rates near-term mass exploitation modestly at 2.16% (80th percentile) and CISA's SSVC framework records no observed exploitation, indicating opportunistic rather than widespread abuse. The high AC:H reflects the timing-dependent nature of the flaw, which reduces reliability but does not eliminate risk on multi-user or shared hosts.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) affects current Microsoft platforms including Windows 11 24H2, 25H2, 26H1, and Windows Server 2025, where a race condition (CWE-362) in the handling of a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft has released a patch, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. With a CVSS 7.0 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L) the flaw requires local access and precise timing, making it a plausible second-stage escalation rather than an initial entry point.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) Service affects all supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds (2019 through 2025), where a race condition (CWE-362) in access to a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft rates it CVSS 7.0 with total technical impact (SSVC), but exploitation requires high attack complexity and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS is low (0.16%, 5th percentile), consistent with the difficulty of reliably winning the race.

Microsoft reported and patched the issue; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. The CVSS 8.8 with scope-changed impact reflects that a low-privileged local user could reach full SYSTEM-level control of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Local privilege escalation in Windows Key Guard affects all supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases (Server 2019 through 2025), where a race condition in the synchronization of a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to elevate to higher privileges. Microsoft has released patches and rates it Important (CVSS 7.0); there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC records exploitation status as none, though the technical impact is rated total. EPSS is low at 0.24% (16th percentile), consistent with a high-complexity local flaw rather than a widely-scanned remote target.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime component of Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025 allows an already-authenticated local attacker to win a race condition and gain higher privileges. The flaw was reported by Microsoft, which has released a patch; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. The high CVSS complexity (AC:H) reflects that the attacker must reliably win a timing window, tempering real-world exploitability despite the full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability once triggered.
Elevation of privilege in Microsoft Windows Runtime (WinRT) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker win a timing window in a shared-resource race condition and gain higher privileges across a broad range of Windows client and server releases (Windows 10 1809 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025).

There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available from Microsoft.
Denial-of-service in Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series devices lets an unauthenticated, network-based attacker exhaust the packet forwarding engine (PFE) by exploiting a race condition in stateful flow teardown. When the race is hit, a flow's timeout is mis-set to a very high value (>10,000s instead of 3s), so sessions are never reaped, invalidated sessions accumulate without bound, and the device eventually stops forwarding or hits a flowd core and reboots. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; exploitation is probabilistic because the triggering conditions are outside the attacker's control.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's GetUserMedia (WebRTC media capture) implementation allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox by exploiting a race condition via a crafted HTML page, affecting all desktop Chrome builds prior to 150.0.7871.115. Rated High by Chromium and scored CVSS 8.3, this is a second-stage exploitation primitive typically chained after an initial renderer RCE; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. A vendor patch is available in the 150.0.7871.115 Stable channel release.
## Summary Remote code execution and denial of service in FreeRDP before 3.22.0 stem from a use-after-free in the dynamic virtual channel manager (drdynvc), where `dvcman_channel_close` and `dvcman_call_on_receive` access `channel_callback` without proper synchronization (CWE-362). A malicious or compromised RDP server can race DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE messages to free a channel callback while another thread still uses it, corrupting the client heap. This is a client-side flaw affecting anyone connecting to an attacker-controlled server; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV. ## Technical Context FreeRDP is a widely used open-source implementation of the Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol, embedded in clients such as Remmina, GNOME Connections, Weston, and numerous commercial and VDI products. The bug lives in the drdynvc (Dynamic Virtual Channel) subsystem, which multiplexes optional channels (clipboard, audio, device redirection, etc.) over the RDP connection and processes them on a dedicated client thread. Per CWE-362 (concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization / race condition), `dvcman_channel_close` (handling DYNVC_CLOSE) can free the `channel_callback` structure while `dvcman_call_on_receive` (handling DYNVC_DATA) is concurrently dereferencing it, producing a heap use-after-free. Because the RDP server dictates the timing and ordering of DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE PDUs, a hostile server controls the race window. ## Risk Assessment The published CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:H) yields 8.3 (High), driven mainly by high availability impact with lower confidentiality/integrity impact — consistent with a heap corruption that reliably crashes the client (DoS) but only potentially yields RCE. AC:H correctly reflects that success depends on winning a non-deterministic thread race, which is unreliable and may require many attempts. There is no EPSS score, no KEV listing, and no confirmed public POC in the provided data, so exploitation pressure is currently low-to-unknown; the RCE and Denial Of Service tags reflect potential impact, not observed attacks. One nuance to verify: the vector uses UI:N/PR:N, but this is a client-side vulnerability requiring the victim to connect to a malicious server — a real-world limiting factor that raw CVSS understates. Net: a legitimate patch priority for fleets whose users connect to untrusted or reachable RDP endpoints, but not an emergency mass-exploitation scenario given AC:H and no evidence of exploitation. ## Affected Products FreeRDP (the open-source RDP client/library and its FreeRDP-based clients) at all versions prior to 3.22.0 are affected; the flaw is fixed in FreeRDP 3.22.0. No CPE strings were provided in the input, so exact downstream package ranges (e.g., distribution builds of Remmina or the freerdp2/freerdp3 packages) should be confirmed against vendor trackers. Authoritative details are in the FreeRDP GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h (https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h) and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/freerdp-use-after-free-via-race-condition-in-drdynvc-channel-callback). ## Remediation Vendor-released patch: FreeRDP 3.22.0 — upgrade all FreeRDP libraries and any FreeRDP-based clients (Remmina, GNOME Connections, xrdp clients, etc.) to 3.22.0 or later, rebuilding or updating downstream distribution packages that bundle the library. Until patched, reduce exposure by only connecting to trusted, known-good RDP servers and avoiding connections to untrusted or attacker-influenced hosts, since the malicious behavior originates server-side; where feasible, restrict outbound RDP (TCP 3389) from client machines to an allowlist of approved servers via egress firewall rules (trade-off: breaks ad-hoc connections to new servers). If specific dynamic virtual channels are not required, disabling optional channel redirections (clipboard, drive, audio) narrows the attack surface of drdynvc but does not fully eliminate the race and reduces functionality. Follow guidance in GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h (https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h) and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/freerdp-use-after-free-via-race-condition-in-drdynvc-channel-callback). ## Exploit Scenario An attacker stands up or compromises an RDP server and lures a victim into connecting with a vulnerable FreeRDP client (e.g., via a malicious .rdp file, phishing link, or a man-in-the-middle position). Once connected, the server rapidly interleaves DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE messages on a dynamic virtual channel to win the race and trigger the heap use-after-free in the client's drdynvc thread, crashing the client or, with careful heap grooming, potentially executing code in the client process. No public POC is identified at this time, and the AC:H race condition makes reliable code execution difficult. ## Exploitation Conditions Exploitation requires the victim to establish an RDP session to an attacker-controlled or compromised server running against a FreeRDP client before 3.22.0, and the connection must use the drdynvc dynamic virtual channel path. The attacker must then concurrently send DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE messages on a dynamic virtual channel to win a timing race in `channel_callback` access. Limiting factors: the attacker must control the RDP server side (this is a client-side vulnerability, so it cannot be triggered against an unwilling client that never connects), the exploit depends on winning a non-deterministic thread race (CVSS AC:H) so it is unreliable and may require repeated attempts, and reliable code execution beyond a crash requires heap-layout control. No authentication to the malicious server is needed, but the user must initiate the outbound connection. ## Attack Chain Lure victim to malicious RDP server → Client opens dynamic virtual channel (drdynvc) → Server races DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE → Trigger heap use-after-free on channel_callback → Crash client or execute code in client process ## Confidence Notes Affected/fixed version (before 3.22.0; fixed in 3.22.0), root cause, and functions are confirmed by the FreeRDP GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h and the VulnCheck advisory. CVSS 4.0 vector, 8.3 score, and CWE-362 are provided in the input; RCE is described as potential, not demonstrated. Not listed in CISA KEV and no EPSS score or public POC was provided, so real-world exploitation status is unknown; downstream package version ranges are not confirmed due to absent CPE data. ## Prevalence high ## Prevalence Basis core open-source RDP library embedded in many Linux remote-desktop clients ## Assessed CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H ## Assessed CVSS Rationale Client-side flaw needing the victim to connect to a malicious server (UI:R) and to win a thread race (AC:H); heap corruption gives high availability impact with limited C/I. ## Assessed CVSS 4.0 Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Unauthorized cross-user data access in Dassault Systèmes BIOVIA Workbook (Release 2021 through Release 2026) stems from a race condition that lets one authenticated low-privilege user read data belonging to another user. Vendor 3DS tags the flaw as an authentication bypass, and its CVSS 3.1 score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L) reflects network-reachable exploitation by any authenticated account with high confidentiality and integrity impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no EPSS or KEV signal supplied.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome desktop prior to 150.0.7871.47 lets an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process break out of the sandbox by winning a race condition in the USB subsystem via a crafted HTML page. Chromium rated it Medium severity despite the 9.6 CVSS, reflecting that it is a second-stage bug requiring prior renderer compromise; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not in CISA KEV, with EPSS at just 0.21% (11th percentile).
Local privilege escalation in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) for Mac, versions prior to 2.3, lets a low-privileged local user win a race condition (CWE-362) to gain elevated privileges. The flaw stems from improper synchronization around a shared resource, and successful exploitation yields full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability on the host. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is negligible (0.07%); CISA SSVC marks exploitation as none but technical impact as total.
Denial of service in the Linux kernel's Broadcom GENET (bcmgenet) Ethernet driver arises because the bcmgenet_timeout handler tears down all transmit queues when only a single queue times out, racing against queues still actively transmitting. The flaw affects systems using Broadcom GENET NICs (e.g. Raspberry Pi 4/CM4 and Broadcom set-top-box SoCs) and can lead to kernel instability or a crash under TX timeout conditions. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.16%), and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation and memory-corruption risk in the Linux kernel disk quota subsystem arises from a use-after-free race between dquot_scan_active() and quota deactivation in quota_release_workfn(). On affected kernels (multiple stable trees from 4.19 through 6.x/7.x), a dquot can be acquired by the scan path after being placed on the releasing list with dq_count==0, so under memory pressure the caller may operate on a freed dquot, corrupting kernel memory. EPSS is low (0.18%, 7th percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the issue requires local access with low privileges per the CVSS vector.
Local privilege escalation or memory disclosure is possible in the User Mode Linux (UML/'um') architecture of the Linux kernel (affected around 6.19, fixed in 7.0.10 and 7.1) due to a TLB-sync race condition where the page table is traversed and modified without holding the page table lock. Concurrent threads in the same process can corrupt page table state, with CVSS 7.8 (local, low-privilege) and a high-impact triad; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low at 0.15% (5th percentile), consistent with a hard-to-trigger local race rather than a mass-exploited flaw.
Recovery code reuse in Filament (Laravel admin panel framework) versions 4.0.0 through 4.11.4 and 5.0.0 through 5.6.4 allows attackers who already possess a victim's password and recovery codes to obtain multiple authenticated sessions per single recovery code by submitting parallel authentication requests. The flaw stems from a TOCTOU race condition (CWE-362) in app-based MFA recovery code validation, undermining the single-use guarantee. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is fixed in 4.11.5 and 5.6.5.
Local privilege escalation in Google Android's NFC subsystem stems from a use-after-free condition in Nfc::eventCallback() within Nfc.h, triggerable via a race condition without user interaction or additional execution privileges. Affected devices covered by the Android Security Bulletin for Android 17 can have an unprivileged local process win the race and elevate to higher-privileged context. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was disclosed by Google through the Android security bulletin process.
Local privilege escalation in Android's PackageInstallerService allows a malicious app to remove a Device Policy Controller (DPC) from a managed device without Device Owner consent, breaking the enterprise management boundary. The flaw stems from a desynchronization between in-memory state and persisted state in createSessionInternal, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. User interaction is required, but no additional execution privileges are needed beyond installing the malicious app.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS before 149.0.7827.155 lets an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process abuse a race condition (CWE-362) in the Updater component to break out of the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. Rated High by Chromium with a CVSS 8.3 and scope-changing impact, but exploitation requires a pre-existing renderer compromise plus user interaction, making it a second-stage bug rather than a single-shot RCE. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low (0.27%) and CISA SSVC lists exploitation as none.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS before 149.0.7827.155 lets a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page, exploiting a race condition (CWE-362) in the Safe Browsing component. Rated High by Chromium with CVSS 8.3, it is a second-stage exploit-chain primitive rather than a standalone entry point. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, CISA SSVC marks exploitation as none, and EPSS is low at 0.24% (15th percentile).
Concurrent action execution in OliveTin versions 3000.0.0 and prior triggers a race condition in a shared text/template.Template instance, enabling cross-user command contamination, runtime panics, and execution of unintended commands. Authenticated users of the OliveTin web interface can exploit this by issuing parallel ExecRequests; no public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the bug manifests during normal multi-user operation. The vendor patched the issue in version 3000.13.0.
Local privilege escalation in the abrt-dbus D-Bus service on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, 7, and 8 allows a low-privileged local user to race the ChownProblemDir method against still-running post-create event handlers. By invoking ChownProblemDir while privileged event scripts hold a write lock on the dump directory, the attacker gains filesystem ownership of files being written by root-context handlers, enabling tampering with privileged output and potential privilege escalation. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS prior to 149.0.7827.115 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the sandbox via a race condition in Safe Browsing handling of a malicious file. Chromium rates the issue High severity and a vendor patch is available, though no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Session hijacking in Pi-hole FTL versions prior to 6.6.1 stems from a race condition in the CivetWeb-based HTTP session management subsystem introduced during the v6.0 rewrite. Remote attackers can leverage concurrent requests to compromise web admin session state, potentially gaining high-impact access (C:H/I:H/A:H per CVSS 8.8) to the DNS sinkhole and network filtering controls. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but vendor has published an upstream fix in v6.6.1.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock (afd.sys) allows an authenticated low-privileged user to elevate to SYSTEM by winning a race condition that triggers a use-after-free. The flaw is reported by Microsoft (MSRC) and carries CVSS 7.0 with high attack complexity, but no public exploit is identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock (AFD.sys) allows an authenticated low-privileged attacker to win a race condition and gain SYSTEM-level execution. The flaw is a use-after-free triggered through concurrent WinSock operations, and at time of analysis no public exploit has been identified and the CVE is not on the CISA KEV list.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock (afd.sys) allows an authenticated low-privileged user to win a race condition and trigger a use-after-free, enabling code execution at kernel level. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, but AFD.sys has a long history of being a preferred LPE target and Microsoft has marked the issue as important. EPSS data was not provided in the source feed.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows UI Automation Manager (uiamanager.dll) enables authenticated low-privileged users to gain higher privileges by exploiting a race condition in concurrent resource access. The flaw was reported by Microsoft's own security team (secure@microsoft.com) and has no public exploit identified at time of analysis, though the CVSS 7.0 score reflects high impact on confidentiality, integrity, and availability once successfully triggered.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Ancillary Function Driver for WinSock (afd.sys) allows an authenticated local user to gain SYSTEM-level rights by winning a race condition that leads to a use-after-free in kernel memory. The flaw affects Windows installations where afd.sys is loaded (effectively all desktop and server SKUs) and was reported by Microsoft Security Response Center; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is not listed on the CISA KEV catalog.
Local code execution in Microsoft Office Excel can be achieved by an unauthenticated attacker who tricks a user into opening a malicious spreadsheet that triggers an integer underflow condition. The flaw carries a CVSS 7.0 rating reflecting high attack complexity and required user interaction, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. There is a notable mismatch between the description (integer underflow) and the assigned CWE-362 (race condition), which warrants verification with Microsoft's advisory.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows Push Notifications service stems from a race condition (CWE-362) that an authenticated low-privilege user can win to gain higher privileges on the host. The CVSS 7.8 score with Scope:Changed indicates successful exploitation crosses a security boundary, impacting confidentiality, integrity, and availability of resources beyond the vulnerable component. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the vulnerability is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows Push Notifications service stems from a race condition (CWE-362) that an attacker with low-privileged local access can exploit to gain higher privileges. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not on CISA KEV, but the CVSS 7.8 rating reflects high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability once the race is won. A vendor patch is available via the Microsoft Security Response Center advisory.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows Push Notifications service stems from a race condition (CWE-362) in concurrent handling of shared resources, allowing an authorized low-privileged attacker to win a timing window and elevate to higher privileges with scope change. The CVSS 3.1 vector AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H reflects local-only exploitation with high attack complexity due to the timing-dependent nature, but a successful attacker gains full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact across a security boundary. No public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in Windows Push Notifications enables an authenticated low-privileged user to elevate to higher privileges by exploiting a race condition (CWE-362) in concurrent access to a shared resource. Successful exploitation results in high impact to confidentiality, integrity, and availability with scope change, but no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Microsoft has released a patch via MSRC advisory.
Remote code execution in Microsoft Remote Desktop Client is possible when a user connects to an attacker-controlled RDP server, where a heap-based buffer overflow triggered by a race condition (CWE-362) allows arbitrary code execution on the client machine. The flaw carries a CVSS 7.5 (High) rating with high attack complexity and required user interaction, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Microsoft has released a patch via MSRC advisory CVE-2026-42913.
Local privilege escalation in Microsoft Windows Telephony Service allows an authenticated low-privileged attacker to elevate to higher privileges by exploiting a race condition in concurrent access to a shared resource. The flaw carries a CVSS 7.0 (High) rating with high attack complexity, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Successful exploitation grants full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the affected host.
Remote code execution in Microsoft Remote Desktop Client is possible when a user connects to an attacker-controlled or compromised RDP endpoint, where a race condition (CWE-362) can be triggered to corrupt heap memory and execute arbitrary code in the client process. The flaw is unauthenticated from the network attacker's perspective but requires user interaction to initiate the connection, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Function Discovery Service (fdwsd.dll) allows an authorized low-privileged attacker on the host to win a race condition and obtain elevated privileges. Reported by Microsoft (secure@microsoft.com) and tracked under MSRC's update guide, the issue carries a CVSS 7.0 score driven by high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though the high attack complexity reflects the timing window required. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Unsynchronized traversal of HVM I/O port translation linked lists in the Xen hypervisor on x86 systems exposes a race condition exploitable by a compromised or malicious device model. The hypervisor manages I/O port translations via a linked list modified by the device model through XEN_DOMCTL_ioport_mapping; because traversal of that list during I/O port handling was never synchronized against concurrent modifications, a racing update can corrupt traversal state. The resulting hypervisor crash causes a Denial of Service of the entire host, with privilege escalation and information leakage explicitly acknowledged as non-ruled-out consequences - all without any active CISA KEV listing or public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS versions prior to 149.0.7827.103 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer/network process to break out of the browser sandbox via a race condition triggered by a crafted HTML page. Chromium rates the severity as High and a vendor patch is available, though no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Use-After-Free and race conditions in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth hci_uart driver (drivers/bluetooth/hci_uart.c) enable a local low-privileged user to corrupt kernel heap memory, potentially escalating to root. The flaw stems from improper lifecycle management of the hci_uart struct and its associated workqueues: when a TTY hangup interrupts Bluetooth UART initialization before HCI_UART_PROTO_READY is set, teardown skips workqueue cancellation, leaving deferred work items to dereference freed memory. Three compounding sub-issues - a tx_skb double-free, a vendor callback UAF via premature hci_free_dev(), and proto_lock races during error paths - are all resolved in patched stable releases. No public exploit is known and EPSS at 0.02% (7th percentile) signals low near-term exploitation probability despite the CVSS 7.8 rating.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 149.0.7827.53 enables a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page that triggers a race condition in the Codecs component. Chromium rates this High severity, and while no public exploit was identified at time of analysis, the bug fits the classic renderer-to-sandbox-escape pattern frequently chained in real-world Chrome exploit kits. CVSS is 8.3 reflecting high attack complexity, required user interaction, and a scope change.
Remote denial of service in Gotenberg v8.10.0 through v8.32.0 allows unauthenticated attackers to crash the process by sending a single multipart request with multiple downloadFrom entries that trigger concurrent writes to unsynchronized Go maps. Because the default deployment enables downloadFrom and disables authentication, any internet-exposed instance can be terminated remotely without credentials, and publicly available exploit code exists in the upstream GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-vp73-vjw8-8f32. No public exploit identified in CISA KEV at time of analysis, but the PoC is fully reproducible and the fix is shipped in v8.33.0.
Remote code execution in Google Chrome versions prior to 148.0.7778.216 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code within the renderer sandbox by enticing a victim to visit a crafted HTML page that triggers a race condition in the WebAudio component. Google rates the underlying Chromium issue as High severity, and while no public exploit identified at time of analysis, the bug is browser-resident and reachable from any web origin, making it a meaningful drive-by risk once details surface. EPSS data was not provided, and the issue is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation risk in the Linux kernel's ALSA PCM OSS emulation layer stems from an unprotected concurrent access to the runtime.oss.trigger bit field, allowing racing writes to corrupt adjacent bit fields and destabilize sound device state. The flaw affects Linux kernel versions prior to 6.12.88, 6.18.30, and 7.0.7, and was discovered through fuzzing; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS scoring (0.02%) indicates negligible probability of opportunistic exploitation.
Race condition in the Linux kernel's MPTCP (Multipath TCP) path manager subsystem affects the mptcp_pm_add_timer() ADD_ADDR retransmission helper, where the timer callback runs in softirq context without holding the socket lock via bh_lock_sock(). The data race could lead to inconsistent socket state when concurrent operations touch the same MPTCP socket. Despite a CVSS of 9.8, EPSS is only 0.02% (5th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the tag 'Information Disclosure' suggests realistic impact is far below the headline score.
Race condition in the Linux kernel's NVMe/TCP target (nvmet-tcp) subsystem allows a remote NVMe/TCP host to trigger a double kref_put() on a queue object by sending an Initialization Connection Request (ICReq) and immediately closing the connection. The flaw, fixed in stable releases 6.12.88, 6.18.30, and 7.0.7 (mainline 7.1-rc2), stems from nvmet_tcp_handle_icreq() updating queue->state without serializing against concurrent target-side queue teardown, defeating the DISCONNECTING-state guard and enabling a use-after-free condition. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.02%), indicating limited real-world exploitation interest despite the headline 9.8 CVSS.
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's amphion VPU media driver allows local privileged users to trigger a kernel panic and potential memory corruption due to a race condition between v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() and v4l2_m2m_try_run(). The flaw affects systems using the amphion video encode/decode driver (introduced in 5.18) and has been resolved upstream by removing reliance on the m2m framework's job scheduling. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.02%), but the local high-impact CVSS of 7.8 makes it relevant for multi-tenant or hardened kernel deployments.
Race condition in the Linux kernel's Intel VT-d IOMMU driver allows a local low-privileged attacker to trigger inconsistent PASID table state during domain replacement, potentially producing spurious IOMMU faults and unpredictable DMA behavior with cross-scope impact. The flaw stems from non-atomic updates to 512-bit PASID entries while the Present bit is set, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis despite a high CVSS score driven by the scope-changed local attack surface.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Backup Engine affects Windows 10 (21H2, 22H2) and Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1), where a race condition (CWE-362) lets an already-authenticated low-privileged user win a timing window to elevate to higher privileges. The CVSS 3.1 base score is 7.0 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L), reflecting local access and high attack complexity but full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the CVE is not listed in CISA KEV; a vendor patch is available from Microsoft.
Denial of service in Hoverfly's Diff mode (versions ≤ 1.12.7) lets any client with proxy access crash the entire process by sending concurrent requests. The `AddDiff()` function writes to the shared `responsesDiff` map without a mutex, so simultaneous proxy requests - the normal case for a proxy - trigger Go's built-in concurrent-map detector, producing an unrecoverable `fatal error: concurrent map read and map write` that kills the process. Publicly available exploit code exists (a working POC is embedded in the GitHub advisory), though there is no public exploit identified as actively used in the wild and no KEV listing.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Wireless Networking component affects a broad span of currently supported Windows releases (Windows 10 1809 through Windows 11 26H1, and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025), letting an already-authenticated local user win a timing race to gain SYSTEM-level control. The flaw is a CWE-362 race condition where improperly synchronized access to a shared resource can be manipulated during a narrow execution window; CVSS 7.8 reflects a high-complexity but high-impact local escalation with a scope change. Microsoft (the reporter) has shipped a patch, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Elevation of privilege in the Windows SMB implementation allows an authenticated network attacker to win a race condition and gain higher privileges on affected systems, spanning Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2012 through 2025. The flaw is a concurrency defect (CWE-362) reported by Microsoft with a vendor patch already released; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. Note a data conflict: the description and CVSS impacts describe privilege elevation with full confidentiality/integrity/availability impact, while the intelligence tags also label it 'Information Disclosure' — the CVSS vector should be treated as authoritative.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) component of Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2022/2025 lets an already-authenticated local user race a shared resource to gain higher privileges. Microsoft (the reporting vendor) has shipped fixes; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as none, though the technical impact is total. EPSS is low at 0.24% (16th percentile), consistent with a high-complexity local flaw rather than a mass-exploited network bug.
Remote code execution in Microsoft's Windows Network File System (NFS) server role affects a broad range of Windows client and server builds from Windows Server 2012 through Windows Server 2025 and Windows 10/11. An unauthenticated network attacker who wins a race condition in a shared NFS resource can execute arbitrary code on the target. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC rates exploitation as none; EPSS is low at 0.64% (47th percentile), consistent with the high attack complexity of racing the vulnerable code path.
Remote code execution in the Microsoft Windows network driver affects a broad range of Windows client and server builds (Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1, and Windows Server 2012 through Windows Server 2025), where a race condition (CWE-362) in the shared network driver lets an unauthenticated network attacker who wins a timing window run arbitrary code with full system impact. Microsoft has shipped fixes and rates it 8.1 with high attack complexity; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC lists exploitation status as none, though the flaw is assessed as automatable with total technical impact. The EPSS probability is low (1.00%, 59th percentile), consistent with the high-complexity, not-yet-exploited profile.
Local privilege escalation in Windows Runtime (WinRT) across Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server 2019 through 2025 allows an already-authenticated attacker to win a race condition and gain SYSTEM-level privileges. The flaw stems from concurrent access to a shared resource without proper synchronization, and full C:H/I:H/A:H impact indicates complete host compromise once triggered. Reported by Microsoft with a patch available; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Media component of Windows 11 (versions 24H2, 25H2, and 26H1) lets an already-authenticated, low-privileged user win a race condition to elevate to higher privileges on the local machine. Reported by Microsoft and carrying CVSS 7.0, it has an SSVC technical impact of 'total' but an SSVC exploitation status of 'none' and a low EPSS of 0.24% (16th percentile); a vendor patch is available and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Telephony Service (TAPI) affects a broad range of Microsoft Windows client and server releases, from Windows 10 1607 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2012 through Server 2025. A local, low-privileged attacker who wins a race condition (CWE-362) in the service's handling of a shared resource can corrupt state and elevate to higher privileges, gaining full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact on the host. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not on CISA KEV; EPSS was not provided.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows NTFS file system driver lets an authenticated low-privileged user win a race condition (CWE-362) to gain SYSTEM-level rights across nearly all supported Windows client and server builds, from Windows 10 1607 and Server 2012 through Windows 11 26H1 and Server 2025. Microsoft has shipped fixes and publicly available exploit code exists, though EPSS rates near-term mass exploitation modestly at 2.16% (80th percentile) and CISA's SSVC framework records no observed exploitation, indicating opportunistic rather than widespread abuse. The high AC:H reflects the timing-dependent nature of the flaw, which reduces reliability but does not eliminate risk on multi-user or shared hosts.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime (WinRT) affects current Microsoft platforms including Windows 11 24H2, 25H2, 26H1, and Windows Server 2025, where a race condition (CWE-362) in the handling of a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft has released a patch, and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. With a CVSS 7.0 (AV:L/AC:H/PR:L) the flaw requires local access and precise timing, making it a plausible second-stage escalation rather than an initial entry point.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Wireless Wide Area Network (WWAN) Service affects all supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server builds (2019 through 2025), where a race condition (CWE-362) in access to a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft rates it CVSS 7.0 with total technical impact (SSVC), but exploitation requires high attack complexity and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis. EPSS is low (0.16%, 5th percentile), consistent with the difficulty of reliably winning the race.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime affects Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025, where a race condition (CWE-362) in the improperly synchronized handling of a shared resource lets an already-authenticated attacker win a timing window to gain higher privileges. Microsoft reported and patched the issue; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. The CVSS 8.8 with scope-changed impact reflects that a low-privileged local user could reach full SYSTEM-level control of confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
Local privilege escalation in Windows Key Guard affects all supported Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server releases (Server 2019 through 2025), where a race condition in the synchronization of a shared resource lets an already-authenticated local user win a timing window to elevate to higher privileges. Microsoft has released patches and rates it Important (CVSS 7.0); there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and CISA SSVC records exploitation status as none, though the technical impact is rated total. EPSS is low at 0.24% (16th percentile), consistent with a high-complexity local flaw rather than a widely-scanned remote target.
Local privilege escalation in the Windows Runtime component of Windows 11 (24H2, 25H2, 26H1) and Windows Server 2025 allows an already-authenticated local attacker to win a race condition and gain higher privileges. The flaw was reported by Microsoft, which has released a patch; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. The high CVSS complexity (AC:H) reflects that the attacker must reliably win a timing window, tempering real-world exploitability despite the full compromise of confidentiality, integrity, and availability once triggered.
Elevation of privilege in Microsoft Windows Runtime (WinRT) lets a remote, unauthenticated attacker win a timing window in a shared-resource race condition and gain higher privileges across a broad range of Windows client and server releases (Windows 10 1809 through Windows 11 26H1 and Windows Server 2019/2022/2025). Microsoft-reported and patched, the flaw carries CVSS 8.1, driven by full confidentiality, integrity, and availability impact but tempered by high attack complexity. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Elevation of privilege in the Windows Media component of Windows 11 (versions 24H2, 25H2, and 26H1) allows an authorized attacker to win a race condition and gain higher privileges over a network.

Denial-of-service in Juniper Networks Junos OS on SRX Series devices lets an unauthenticated, network-based attacker exhaust the packet forwarding engine (PFE) by exploiting a race condition in stateful flow teardown. When the race is hit, a flow's timeout is mis-set to a very high value (>10,000s instead of 3s), so sessions are never reaped, invalidated sessions accumulate without bound, and the device eventually stops forwarding or hits a flowd core and reboots. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV; exploitation is probabilistic because the triggering conditions are outside the attacker's control.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome's GetUserMedia (WebRTC media capture) implementation allows an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox by exploiting a race condition via a crafted HTML page, affecting all desktop Chrome builds prior to 150.0.7871.115. Rated High by Chromium and scored CVSS 8.3, this is a second-stage exploitation primitive typically chained after an initial renderer RCE; no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not listed in CISA KEV. A vendor patch is available in the 150.0.7871.115 Stable channel release.
## Summary Remote code execution and denial of service in FreeRDP before 3.22.0 stem from a use-after-free in the dynamic virtual channel manager (drdynvc), where `dvcman_channel_close` and `dvcman_call_on_receive` access `channel_callback` without proper synchronization (CWE-362). A malicious or compromised RDP server can race DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE messages to free a channel callback while another thread still uses it, corrupting the client heap. This is a client-side flaw affecting anyone connecting to an attacker-controlled server; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and it is not listed in CISA KEV. ## Technical Context FreeRDP is a widely used open-source implementation of the Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol, embedded in clients such as Remmina, GNOME Connections, Weston, and numerous commercial and VDI products. The bug lives in the drdynvc (Dynamic Virtual Channel) subsystem, which multiplexes optional channels (clipboard, audio, device redirection, etc.) over the RDP connection and processes them on a dedicated client thread. Per CWE-362 (concurrent execution using shared resource with improper synchronization / race condition), `dvcman_channel_close` (handling DYNVC_CLOSE) can free the `channel_callback` structure while `dvcman_call_on_receive` (handling DYNVC_DATA) is concurrently dereferencing it, producing a heap use-after-free. Because the RDP server dictates the timing and ordering of DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE PDUs, a hostile server controls the race window. ## Risk Assessment The published CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:H) yields 8.3 (High), driven mainly by high availability impact with lower confidentiality/integrity impact — consistent with a heap corruption that reliably crashes the client (DoS) but only potentially yields RCE. AC:H correctly reflects that success depends on winning a non-deterministic thread race, which is unreliable and may require many attempts. There is no EPSS score, no KEV listing, and no confirmed public POC in the provided data, so exploitation pressure is currently low-to-unknown; the RCE and Denial Of Service tags reflect potential impact, not observed attacks. One nuance to verify: the vector uses UI:N/PR:N, but this is a client-side vulnerability requiring the victim to connect to a malicious server — a real-world limiting factor that raw CVSS understates. Net: a legitimate patch priority for fleets whose users connect to untrusted or reachable RDP endpoints, but not an emergency mass-exploitation scenario given AC:H and no evidence of exploitation. ## Affected Products FreeRDP (the open-source RDP client/library and its FreeRDP-based clients) at all versions prior to 3.22.0 are affected; the flaw is fixed in FreeRDP 3.22.0. No CPE strings were provided in the input, so exact downstream package ranges (e.g., distribution builds of Remmina or the freerdp2/freerdp3 packages) should be confirmed against vendor trackers. Authoritative details are in the FreeRDP GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h (https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h) and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/freerdp-use-after-free-via-race-condition-in-drdynvc-channel-callback). ## Remediation Vendor-released patch: FreeRDP 3.22.0 — upgrade all FreeRDP libraries and any FreeRDP-based clients (Remmina, GNOME Connections, xrdp clients, etc.) to 3.22.0 or later, rebuilding or updating downstream distribution packages that bundle the library. Until patched, reduce exposure by only connecting to trusted, known-good RDP servers and avoiding connections to untrusted or attacker-influenced hosts, since the malicious behavior originates server-side; where feasible, restrict outbound RDP (TCP 3389) from client machines to an allowlist of approved servers via egress firewall rules (trade-off: breaks ad-hoc connections to new servers). If specific dynamic virtual channels are not required, disabling optional channel redirections (clipboard, drive, audio) narrows the attack surface of drdynvc but does not fully eliminate the race and reduces functionality. Follow guidance in GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h (https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/security/advisories/GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h) and the VulnCheck advisory (https://www.vulncheck.com/advisories/freerdp-use-after-free-via-race-condition-in-drdynvc-channel-callback). ## Exploit Scenario An attacker stands up or compromises an RDP server and lures a victim into connecting with a vulnerable FreeRDP client (e.g., via a malicious .rdp file, phishing link, or a man-in-the-middle position). Once connected, the server rapidly interleaves DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE messages on a dynamic virtual channel to win the race and trigger the heap use-after-free in the client's drdynvc thread, crashing the client or, with careful heap grooming, potentially executing code in the client process. No public POC is identified at this time, and the AC:H race condition makes reliable code execution difficult. ## Exploitation Conditions Exploitation requires the victim to establish an RDP session to an attacker-controlled or compromised server running against a FreeRDP client before 3.22.0, and the connection must use the drdynvc dynamic virtual channel path. The attacker must then concurrently send DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE messages on a dynamic virtual channel to win a timing race in `channel_callback` access. Limiting factors: the attacker must control the RDP server side (this is a client-side vulnerability, so it cannot be triggered against an unwilling client that never connects), the exploit depends on winning a non-deterministic thread race (CVSS AC:H) so it is unreliable and may require repeated attempts, and reliable code execution beyond a crash requires heap-layout control. No authentication to the malicious server is needed, but the user must initiate the outbound connection. ## Attack Chain Lure victim to malicious RDP server → Client opens dynamic virtual channel (drdynvc) → Server races DYNVC_DATA and DYNVC_CLOSE → Trigger heap use-after-free on channel_callback → Crash client or execute code in client process ## Confidence Notes Affected/fixed version (before 3.22.0; fixed in 3.22.0), root cause, and functions are confirmed by the FreeRDP GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-3mv2-5q57-2v8h and the VulnCheck advisory. CVSS 4.0 vector, 8.3 score, and CWE-362 are provided in the input; RCE is described as potential, not demonstrated. Not listed in CISA KEV and no EPSS score or public POC was provided, so real-world exploitation status is unknown; downstream package version ranges are not confirmed due to absent CPE data. ## Prevalence high ## Prevalence Basis core open-source RDP library embedded in many Linux remote-desktop clients ## Assessed CVSS Vector CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H ## Assessed CVSS Rationale Client-side flaw needing the victim to connect to a malicious server (UI:R) and to win a thread race (AC:H); heap corruption gives high availability impact with limited C/I. ## Assessed CVSS 4.0 Vector CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:H/AT:N/PR:N/UI:P/VC:L/VI:L/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N
Unauthorized cross-user data access in Dassault Systèmes BIOVIA Workbook (Release 2021 through Release 2026) stems from a race condition that lets one authenticated low-privilege user read data belonging to another user. Vendor 3DS tags the flaw as an authentication bypass, and its CVSS 3.1 score of 8.1 (AV:N/AC:L/PR:L) reflects network-reachable exploitation by any authenticated account with high confidentiality and integrity impact. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and no EPSS or KEV signal supplied.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome desktop prior to 150.0.7871.47 lets an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process break out of the sandbox by winning a race condition in the USB subsystem via a crafted HTML page. Chromium rated it Medium severity despite the 9.6 CVSS, reflecting that it is a second-stage bug requiring prior renderer compromise; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and it is not in CISA KEV, with EPSS at just 0.21% (11th percentile).
Local privilege escalation in Dell Display and Peripheral Manager (DDPM) for Mac, versions prior to 2.3, lets a low-privileged local user win a race condition (CWE-362) to gain elevated privileges.

No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS is negligible (0.07%); CISA SSVC marks exploitation as none but technical impact as total.
Denial of service in the Linux kernel's Broadcom GENET (bcmgenet) Ethernet driver arises because the bcmgenet_timeout handler tears down all transmit queues when only a single queue times out, racing against queues still actively transmitting. The flaw affects systems using Broadcom GENET NICs (e.g. Raspberry Pi 4/CM4 and Broadcom set-top-box SoCs) and can lead to kernel instability or a crash under TX timeout conditions. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, EPSS is low (0.16%), and it is not listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation and memory-corruption risk in the Linux kernel disk quota subsystem arises from a use-after-free race between dquot_scan_active() and quota deactivation in quota_release_workfn(). On affected kernels (multiple stable trees from 4.19 through 6.x/7.x), a dquot can be acquired by the scan path after being placed on the releasing list with dq_count==0, so under memory pressure the caller may operate on a freed dquot, corrupting kernel memory. EPSS is low (0.18%, 7th percentile) and there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the issue requires local access with low privileges per the CVSS vector.
Local privilege escalation or memory disclosure is possible in the User Mode Linux (UML/'um') architecture of the Linux kernel (affected around 6.19, fixed in 7.0.10 and 7.1) due to a TLB-sync race condition where the page table is traversed and modified without holding the page table lock. Concurrent threads in the same process can corrupt page table state, with CVSS 7.8 (local, low-privilege) and a high-impact triad; there is no public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is low at 0.15% (5th percentile), consistent with a hard-to-trigger local race rather than a mass-exploited flaw.
Recovery code reuse in Filament (Laravel admin panel framework) versions 4.0.0 through 4.11.4 and 5.0.0 through 5.6.4 allows attackers who already possess a victim's password and recovery codes to obtain multiple authenticated sessions per single recovery code by submitting parallel authentication requests. The flaw stems from a TOCTOU race condition (CWE-362) in app-based MFA recovery code validation, undermining the single-use guarantee. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the vulnerability is fixed in 4.11.5 and 5.6.5.
Local privilege escalation in Google Android's NFC subsystem stems from a use-after-free condition in Nfc::eventCallback() within Nfc.h, triggerable via a race condition without user interaction or additional execution privileges. Affected devices covered by the Android Security Bulletin for Android 17 can have an unprivileged local process win the race and elevate to higher-privileged context. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; the vulnerability was disclosed by Google through the Android security bulletin process.
Local privilege escalation in Android's PackageInstallerService allows a malicious app to remove a Device Policy Controller (DPC) from a managed device without Device Owner consent, breaking the enterprise management boundary. The flaw stems from a desynchronization between in-memory state and persisted state in createSessionInternal, and no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis. User interaction is required, but no additional execution privileges are needed beyond installing the malicious app.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS before 149.0.7827.155 lets an attacker who has already compromised the renderer process abuse a race condition (CWE-362) in the Updater component to break out of the sandbox via a crafted HTML page. Rated High by Chromium with a CVSS 8.3 and scope-changing impact, but exploitation requires a pre-existing renderer compromise plus user interaction, making it a second-stage bug rather than a single-shot RCE. No public exploit identified at time of analysis; EPSS is low (0.27%) and CISA SSVC lists exploitation as none.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS before 149.0.7827.155 lets a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page, exploiting a race condition (CWE-362) in the Safe Browsing component. Rated High by Chromium with CVSS 8.3, it is a second-stage exploit-chain primitive rather than a standalone entry point. There is no public exploit identified at time of analysis, CISA SSVC marks exploitation as none, and EPSS is low at 0.24% (15th percentile).
Concurrent action execution in OliveTin versions 3000.0.0 and prior triggers a race condition in a shared text/template.Template instance, enabling cross-user command contamination, runtime panics, and execution of unintended commands. Authenticated users of the OliveTin web interface can exploit this by issuing parallel ExecRequests; no public exploit is identified at time of analysis, but the bug manifests during normal multi-user operation. The vendor patched the issue in version 3000.13.0.
Local privilege escalation in the abrt-dbus D-Bus service on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6, 7, and 8 allows a low-privileged local user to race the ChownProblemDir method against still-running post-create event handlers. By invoking ChownProblemDir while privileged event scripts hold a write lock on the dump directory, the attacker gains filesystem ownership of files being written by root-context handlers, enabling tampering with privileged output and potential privilege escalation. No public exploit identified at time of analysis, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS prior to 149.0.7827.115 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the sandbox via a race condition in Safe Browsing handling of a malicious file. Chromium rates the issue High severity and a vendor patch is available, though no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Session hijacking in Pi-hole FTL versions prior to 6.6.1 stems from a race condition in the CivetWeb-based HTTP session management subsystem introduced during the v6.0 rewrite.

Local privilege escalation in the Windows Function Discovery Service (fdwsd.dll) allows an authorized low-privileged attacker on the host to win a race condition and obtain elevated privileges. Reported by Microsoft (secure@microsoft.com) and tracked under MSRC's update guide, the issue carries a CVSS 7.0 score driven by high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though the high attack complexity reflects the timing window required. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and the flaw is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Unsynchronized traversal of HVM I/O port translation linked lists in the Xen hypervisor on x86 systems exposes a race condition exploitable by a compromised or malicious device model. The hypervisor manages I/O port translations via a linked list modified by the device model through XEN_DOMCTL_ioport_mapping; because traversal of that list during I/O port handling was never synchronized against concurrent modifications, a racing update can corrupt traversal state. The resulting hypervisor crash causes a Denial of Service of the entire host, with privilege escalation and information leakage explicitly acknowledged as non-ruled-out consequences - all without any active CISA KEV listing or public exploit identified at time of analysis.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on macOS versions prior to 149.0.7827.103 allows a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer/network process to break out of the browser sandbox via a race condition triggered by a crafted HTML page. Chromium rates the severity as High and a vendor patch is available, though no public exploit has been identified at time of analysis.
Use-After-Free and race conditions in the Linux kernel's Bluetooth hci_uart driver (drivers/bluetooth/hci_uart.c) enable a local low-privileged user to corrupt kernel heap memory, potentially escalating to root. The flaw stems from improper lifecycle management of the hci_uart struct and its associated workqueues: when a TTY hangup interrupts Bluetooth UART initialization before HCI_UART_PROTO_READY is set, teardown skips workqueue cancellation, leaving deferred work items to dereference freed memory. Three compounding sub-issues - a tx_skb double-free, a vendor callback UAF via premature hci_free_dev(), and proto_lock races during error paths - are all resolved in patched stable releases. No public exploit is known and EPSS at 0.02% (7th percentile) signals low near-term exploitation probability despite the CVSS 7.8 rating.
Sandbox escape in Google Chrome on Windows prior to 149.0.7827.53 enables a remote attacker who has already compromised the renderer process to break out of the browser sandbox via a crafted HTML page that triggers a race condition in the Codecs component. Chromium rates this High severity, and while no public exploit was identified at time of analysis, the bug fits the classic renderer-to-sandbox-escape pattern frequently chained in real-world Chrome exploit kits. CVSS is 8.3 reflecting high attack complexity, required user interaction, and a scope change.
Remote denial of service in Gotenberg v8.10.0 through v8.32.0 allows unauthenticated attackers to crash the process by sending a single multipart request with multiple downloadFrom entries that trigger concurrent writes to unsynchronized Go maps. Because the default deployment enables downloadFrom and disables authentication, any internet-exposed instance can be terminated remotely without credentials, and publicly available exploit code exists in the upstream GitHub Security Advisory GHSA-vp73-vjw8-8f32. No public exploit identified in CISA KEV at time of analysis, but the PoC is fully reproducible and the fix is shipped in v8.33.0.
Remote code execution in Google Chrome versions prior to 148.0.7778.216 allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code within the renderer sandbox by enticing a victim to visit a crafted HTML page that triggers a race condition in the WebAudio component. Google rates the underlying Chromium issue as High severity, and while no public exploit identified at time of analysis, the bug is browser-resident and reachable from any web origin, making it a meaningful drive-by risk once details surface. EPSS data was not provided, and the issue is not currently listed in CISA KEV.
Local privilege escalation risk in the Linux kernel's ALSA PCM OSS emulation layer stems from an unprotected concurrent access to the runtime.oss.trigger bit field, allowing racing writes to corrupt adjacent bit fields and destabilize sound device state. The flaw affects Linux kernel versions prior to 6.12.88, 6.18.30, and 7.0.7, and was discovered through fuzzing; no public exploit identified at time of analysis, and EPSS scoring (0.02%) indicates negligible probability of opportunistic exploitation.
Race condition in the Linux kernel's MPTCP (Multipath TCP) path manager subsystem affects the mptcp_pm_add_timer() ADD_ADDR retransmission helper, where the timer callback runs in softirq context without holding the socket lock via bh_lock_sock(). The data race could lead to inconsistent socket state when concurrent operations touch the same MPTCP socket. Despite a CVSS of 9.8, EPSS is only 0.02% (5th percentile) and no public exploit identified at time of analysis; the tag 'Information Disclosure' suggests realistic impact is far below the headline score.
Race condition in the Linux kernel's NVMe/TCP target (nvmet-tcp) subsystem allows a remote NVMe/TCP host to trigger a double kref_put() on a queue object by sending an Initialization Connection Request (ICReq) and immediately closing the connection. The flaw, fixed in stable releases 6.12.88, 6.18.30, and 7.0.7 (mainline 7.1-rc2), stems from nvmet_tcp_handle_icreq() updating queue->state without serializing against concurrent target-side queue teardown, defeating the DISCONNECTING-state guard and enabling a use-after-free condition. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.02%), indicating limited real-world exploitation interest despite the headline 9.8 CVSS.
Use-after-free in the Linux kernel's amphion VPU media driver allows local privileged users to trigger a kernel panic and potential memory corruption due to a race condition between v4l2_m2m_ctx_release() and v4l2_m2m_try_run(). The flaw affects systems using the amphion video encode/decode driver (introduced in 5.18) and has been resolved upstream by removing reliance on the m2m framework's job scheduling. No public exploit identified at time of analysis and EPSS is very low (0.02%), but the local high-impact CVSS of 7.8 makes it relevant for multi-tenant or hardened kernel deployments.
Race condition in the Linux kernel's Intel VT-d IOMMU driver allows a local low-privileged attacker to trigger inconsistent PASID table state during domain replacement, potentially producing spurious IOMMU faults and unpredictable DMA behavior with cross-scope impact. The flaw stems from non-atomic updates to 512-bit PASID entries while the Present bit is set, and no public exploit identified at time of analysis despite a high CVSS score driven by the scope-changed local attack surface.
