Local-only UAF requiring low-privilege credentials; A:L added independently because use-after-free in context cleanup commonly causes process crashes, consistent with the DoS tag despite VA:N in the provided vector.

Lifecycle Timeline
1DescriptionCVE.org
A security flaw has been discovered in Open5GS 2.7.7. This affects the function amf_context_final of the file src/amf/context.c of the component AMF. Performing a manipulation results in use after free. The attack is only possible with local access. The exploit has been released to the public and may be used for attacks.
AnalysisAI
Use-after-free in Open5GS 2.7.7's AMF component allows a local low-privileged user to access freed memory within the amf_context_final function in src/amf/context.c, producing a low-severity confidentiality exposure. Exploitation is strictly local - no network vector exists - and a public proof-of-concept is confirmed by the CVSS 4.0 E:P supplemental modifier. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires local access to the host operating system running Open5GS 2.7.7 with at least low-privilege OS credentials - remote or unauthenticated exploitation is not possible per the CVSS 4.0 AV:L/PR:L metrics. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | Real-world risk is low. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | A local low-privileged user on a host running Open5GS 2.7.7 executes the available proof-of-concept tool, triggering the AMF context finalization routine in a way that causes `amf_context_final` to dereference a previously freed pointer. The attacker reads residual heap data from the AMF process memory, potentially exposing in-memory AMF context state. … |
| Remediation | Consult the vendor security advisory at https://github.com/open5gs/open5gs/security/advisories/GHSA-88pq-hpwv-2vjw to identify the specific patched release version - no exact fix version was confirmed in the available intelligence data, so the upgrade target must be validated there before deployment. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
