CVE-2024-7409 is an improper-synchronization flaw in the QEMU Network Block Device (NBD) server. The flaw occurs during socket closure when a client keeps a socket open while the server is being taken offline, allowing the socket-close operation to be handled without sufficient synchronization and resulting in a denial-of-service condition.
