CVE-2024-24453Network attack vector

Cellular-network denial of service via malformed E-RAB field

Published Nov 15, 2024 · Updated Aug 26, 2025

Invalid memory access in HPE Athonet Core 11.0 through 11.6 allows remote attackers to interrupt cellular service with crafted S1AP traffic. The vEPC MME mishandles the ProtocolIE_ID field of an E-RAB NotToBeModifiedBearerModInd element, causing invalid memory access while parsing the payload. Exploitation requires access to the RAN-to-Core path and repeated crafted connections; it disrupts availability without reported data disclosure or modification.
