AMF service crash via negative path index
Published Aug 27, 2026 · Updated Aug 27, 2026
Denial of service in free5GC 4.1.0 allows remote attackers to crash the AMF service with a crafted subscription PATCH request. ModifyAMFEventSubscriptionProcedure converts an eventList path segment to an integer but uses negative values as slice indexes, causing a Go runtime panic. Network access to the AMF Event Exposure subscription endpoint is sufficient; the demonstrated request returns HTTP 500 and interrupts AMF request processing.
