Network-reachable Diameter interface requires low-privilege peer access (PR:L); out-of-bounds read yields confidentiality and availability impacts but no integrity impact (I:N); scope unchanged (S:U) as impact is confined to the PCRF process.

Lifecycle Timeline
4DescriptionCVE.org
A vulnerability was detected in Open5GS 2.8.0. This affects the function pcrf_rx_aar_cb of the file src/pcrf/pcrf-rx-path.c of the component Rx AA-Request Handler. Performing a manipulation results in out-of-bounds read. It is possible to initiate the attack remotely. The patch is named c18dc6938bf63cc7374315d3dca303d92066e746. To fix this issue, it is recommended to deploy a patch.
AnalysisAI
Out-of-bounds read in Open5GS 2.8.0 PCRF Rx AA-Request handler allows remote low-privileged attackers with Diameter Rx interface access to send crafted AA-Request messages containing null or incorrectly-sized Framed-IP-Address or Framed-IPv6-Prefix AVPs, triggering memory reads beyond allocated boundaries. The patch commit c18dc6938bf63cc7374315d3dca303d92066e746 adds missing null and length validation for both AVP types; a tagged release incorporating it has not been independently confirmed. …

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires network-level access to the PCRF's Diameter Rx interface, an internal 5G/4G core interface not exposed to the public internet in standard deployments. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 score of 5.3 with vector AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N reflects network-reachable, low-complexity exploitation requiring low privilege. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in. |
| Exploit Scenario | An attacker who has compromised an internal Application Function node - or who has otherwise gained Diameter peer access to the PCRF Rx interface - crafts an AA-Request with a Framed-IP-Address AVP whose avp_value is null or whose data length does not match the expected 4-byte IPv4 size. When the unpatched pcrf_rx_aar_cb() processes the message, it dereferences the null or undersized pointer, triggering an out-of-bounds read that may expose adjacent heap memory or crash the PCRF process; a proof-of-concept is indicated by the CVSS 4.0 E:P flag but no specific public PoC code has been confirmed in available sources. |
| Remediation | Apply upstream patch commit c18dc6938bf63cc7374315d3dca303d92066e746 directly from the Open5GS repository (https://github.com/open5gs/open5gs/commit/c18dc6938bf63cc7374315d3dca303d92066e746). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
