Unauthenticated service crash via oversized SEID
Published Dec 18, 2025 · Updated Dec 18, 2025
Improper array-index validation in free5GC UPF 4.1.0 allows remote attackers to crash the service via a crafted PFCP deletion request. LocalNode.Sess() and LocalNode.DeleteSess() convert the untrusted uint64 SEID to int, subtract one, and index n.sess without a lower-bound check. No authentication is required; a reachable PFCP endpoint accepts the oversized value and terminates the UPF process with a Go runtime panic.
