CWE-365 Switch语句中的竞争条件

Race Condition in Switch

结构: Simple

Abstraction: Base

状态: Draft

被利用可能性: Medium

基本描述

The code contains a switch statement in which the switched variable can be modified while the switch is still executing, resulting in unexpected behavior.

扩展描述

This issue is particularly important in the case of switch statements that involve fall-through style case statements - ie., those which do not end with break. If the variable being tested by the switch changes in the course of execution, this could change the intended logic of the switch so much that it places the process in a contradictory state and in some cases could even result in memory corruption.

常见的影响

可能的缓解方案

Implementation

策略:

Variables that may be subject to race conditions should be locked before the switch statement starts and only unlocked after the statement ends.

示例代码

例

This example has a switch statement that executes different code depending on the current time.

bad C

It seems that the default case of the switch statement should never be reached, as st_ctime % 2 should always be 0 or 1. However, if st_ctime % 2 is 1 when the first case is evaluated, the time may change and st_ctime % 2 may be equal to 0 when the second case is evaluated. The result is that neither case 1 or case 2 execute, and the default option is chosen.
