CVE-2009-5010: Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition') in pyftpdlib

May 2, 2022 (updated October 14, 2024)

Race condition in the FTPHandler class in ftpserver.py in pyftpdlib before 0.5.1 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (daemon outage) by establishing and then immediately closing a TCP connection, leading to the accept function having an unexpected return value of None, a different vulnerability than CVE-2010-3494.
