Common Weakness Enumeration

CWE-557

Grouping Prohibited

Concurrency Issues

Status: Draft

Weaknesses in this category are related to concurrent use of shared resources.

Grouping entries organize the catalogue and should not be used to map the root cause of a vulnerability.

Mapping guidance

This entry is a Grouping. Using groupings for mapping has been discouraged since 2019. They are informal organizational groupings of weaknesses that can help CWE users with data aggregation, navigation, and browsing. However, they are not weaknesses in themselves.

See member weaknesses of this category.

Title
HCL BigFix Service Management was affected with Admin Session Concurrency vulnerability (CVE-2026-21806)
Summary
HCL BigFix Service Management is affected by an Administrative Session Concurrency vulnerability. The application allows multiple simultaneous authenticated sessions for the same administrative account, which could enable an unauthorized attacker to predict or hijack valid session identifiers. Successful exploitation allows an attacker to compromise affected administrative sessions and execute actions with full privileged user permissions.
