CWE
  • CWE-364 - Signal Handler Race Condition
Summary
A race condition vulnerability was discovered in how signals are handled by OpenSSH's server (sshd). If a remote attacker does not authenticate within a set time period, then sshd's SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously. However, this signal handler calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe, for example, syslog(). As a consequence of a successful attack, in the worst case scenario, an attacker may be able to perform a remote code execution (RCE) as an unprivileged user running the sshd server.

If a remote attacker does not authenticate within a set time period, then sshd\u0027s SIGALRM handler is called asynchronously. However, this signal handler calls various functions that are not async-signal-safe, for example, syslog(). As a consequence of a successful attack, in the worst case scenario, an attacker may be able to perform a remote code execution (RCE) as an unprivileged user running the sshd server.\"}], \"problemTypes\": [{\"descriptions\": [{\"lang\": \"en\", \"type\": \"CWE\", \"cweId\": \"CWE-364\", \"description\": \"Signal Handler Race Condition\"}]}], \"providerMetadata\": {\"orgId\": \"53f830b8-0a3f-465b-8143-3b8a9948e749\", \"shortName\": \"redhat\", \"dateUpdated\": \"2025-11-11T16:04:08.572Z\"}, \"x_redhatCweChain\": \"CWE-364: Signal Handler Race Condition\"}}",
