Multiple Binds to the Same Port
CWE-605 · Variant · Draft
When multiple sockets are allowed to bind to the same port, other services on that port may be stolen or spoofed.
Extended description
On most systems, a combination of setting the SO_REUSEADDR socket option, and a call to bind() allows any process to bind to a port to which a previous process has bound with INADDR_ANY. This allows a user to bind to the specific address of a server bound to INADDR_ANY on an unprivileged port, and steal its UDP packets/TCP connection.
