DescriptionCVE.org

A weakness has been identified in Open5GS up to 2.7.7. This vulnerability affects the function ogs_pfcp_xact_local_create of the file src/upf/gtp-path.c of the component GTP-U Receive Path. This manipulation causes allocation of resources. The attack is possible to be carried out remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. Patch name: 9ffc252482d9b03ac01abcedbe95497ff4f95dd0. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.

AnalysisAI

Denial of service in Open5GS up to and including 2.7.7: an unanswerable or failing PFCP Session Report path triggered from the GTP-U receive code causes the UPF (and the parallel SGW-U path) to abort or to leak PFCP transaction objects, degrading or halting user-plane service. The flaw is CWE-770 uncontrolled resource allocation in the GTP-U receive path (src/upf/gtp-path.c, ogs_pfcp_xact_local_create) and is remotely reachable without authentication or user interaction (CVSS:3.1 AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N), though in a correctly segmented 5G core the N3/GTP-U socket is exposed only to the access network (gNB) rather than the public internet. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires network reachability to the Open5GS UPF (or SGW-U) GTP-U / N3 user-plane socket, which in a correctly segmented 5G core is only exposed to the access network (gNB) rather than the public internet; the attacker must be able to inject GTP-U packets that reach the affected PFCP session-report code path in src/upf/gtp-path.c (and the parallel sgwu path). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a medium-severity denial-of-service issue (CWE-770, uncontrolled resource allocation) in the Open5GS UPF/SGW-U GTP-U receive path, not a high-impact priority. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation Apply the upstream fix: upgrade Open5GS past the affected 2.7.7 code level using the merged patch, i.e. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
