Information disclosure via continued error-path execution
Published Feb 24, 2026 · Updated Feb 24, 2026
Information exposure in free5GC UDR 1.4.1 and earlier allows remote attackers to obtain parsing details through Nnef_PfdManagement. GetApplicationDataIndividualPfdFromDBProcedure writes a 404 response but continues and appends null, creating malformed JSON that exposes the NEF parser error. The service must be reachable; requesting a nonexistent application PFD reveals the failure and supports service fingerprinting.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
