Technical details
A signal handler race condition (CWE-364) exists in OpenHarmony v6.0 and earlier versions. This vulnerability allows a local attacker with low privileges to trigger a race condition within signal handling logic, leading to a denial-of-service (DoS) state. The attack does not require user interaction but does require local access to the affected system. Successful exploitation results in a loss of availability for the impacted component or system. Users are advised to refer to the OpenHarmony security disclosure for patch information.
