Having many concurrent transfers of the same RPZ can lead to inconsistent RPZ data, use after free and/or a crash of the recursor.

MEDIUM 5.0EPSS 0.22%

Does this matter?

Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.22%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.

Description

Having many concurrent transfers of the same RPZ can lead to inconsistent RPZ data, use after free and/or a crash of the recursor. Normally concurrent transfers of the same RPZ zone can only occur with a malfunctioning RPZ provider.
