Published Oct 26, 2026
·
Updated

Open5GS 2.6.1 through 2.8.0 contains an out-of-bounds read vulnerability in parseschemeoutput() in lib/sbi/conv.c during SUCI de-concealment due to incomplete length validation. Remote unauthenticated UEs or SBI peers can submit a crafted SUCI with a 42-byte scheme output to a UDM, triggering a heap over-read past the buffer.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Which deployments are exposed to this issue?

Open5GS versions 2.6.1 through 2.8.0 are affected when a UDM performs SUCI de-concealment. The crafted input may be supplied remotely by an unauthenticated UE or an SBI peer.

2

What is required to trigger the flaw?

An attacker needs to submit a crafted SUCI containing a 42-byte scheme output to the UDM. No authentication or user interaction is required, but the attack complexity is rated high.

3

What is the impact of successful exploitation?

The vulnerable parsing path performs a heap out-of-bounds read past the scheme-output buffer. The stated impact is limited to confidentiality, with no integrity or availability impact indicated.
