Overview
The CVE-2025-47316 vulnerability presents a significant security risk, potentially impacting any system or application that uses the flawed functionality. This vulnerability is a result of memory corruption due to a double free condition that occurs when multiple threads race to set the timestamp store. The vulnerability, if exploited, could enable an attacker to compromise the system or leak sensitive data.

How the Exploit Works
The CVE-2025-47316 vulnerability arises from a case of memory corruption due to a double free condition. This happens when multiple threads, in a race condition, simultaneously attempt to set the timestamp store, leading to a double free. The corruption can be exploited by an attacker to execute arbitrary code or manipulate the system, leading to potential system compromise or sensitive data leakage.
Conceptual Example Code
Below is a conceptual example demonstrating how this vulnerability might be exploited using a malicious payload.
POST /vulnerable/endpoint HTTP/1.1
Host: target.example.com
Content-Type: application/json
{ "timestamp": "DOUBLE_FREE_TRIGGER" }In this example, the attacker sends a POST request with a malicious payload (“DOUBLE_FREE_TRIGGER”) designed to exploit the double free vulnerability. This could potentially result in memory corruption, system compromise, or data leakage.
Please note, this is a conceptual example and the actual exploit could be more complex and vary depending on the specific circumstances and configuration of the target system.
