CWE-368 上下文切换时的竞争条件

Context Switching Race Condition

结构: Simple

Abstraction: Base

状态: Draft

被利用可能性: unkown

基本描述

A product performs a series of non-atomic actions to switch between contexts that cross privilege or other security boundaries, but a race condition allows an attacker to modify or misrepresent the product's behavior during the switch.

扩展描述

This is commonly seen in web browser vulnerabilities in which the attacker can perform certain actions while the browser is transitioning from a trusted to an untrusted domain, or vice versa, and the browser performs the actions on one domain using the trust level and resources of the other domain.

CVE-2004-2260 Browser updates address bar as soon as user clicks on a link instead of when the page has loaded, allowing spoofing by redirecting to another page using onUnload method. this is one example of the role of "hooks" and context switches, and should be captured somehow - also a race condition of sorts https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2004-2260

Notes

Relationship Can overlap signal handler race conditions. Research Gap Under-studied as a concept. Frequency unknown; few vulnerability reports give enough detail to know when a context switching race condition is a factor.
