Abstract: We develop a theory of vulnerabilities and their signatures, and use this theory to categorize race
conditions that occur when processes interact with files in the UNIX operating system and that
present security vulnerabilities. We present a formal language for describing these vulnerabilities,
and derive an underlying characteristic. Using this characteristic, we present a tool that analyzes
programs for possible race conditions, and present the results of one such analysis in which five... (Update)
