Technical details
A time-of-check-time-of-use (TOCTOU) race condition exists in the service sentinel worker (servicesentinel.go). The July 2026 fix for a related nil dereference vulnerability re-validated the service lifecycle under serviceResponseDataStoreLock but reused a stale reporter pointer and never re-validated the server object. An authenticated attacker can win the race window by issuing a concurrent server delete (POST /api/v1/batch-delete/server) for their own server, causing the worker to dereference a missing entry in the server list snapshot. The sentinel workers and gRPC server lack panic recovery handlers, so the resulting panic crashes the entire instance without graceful degradation.
