Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-08-24 00:16 - Updated: 2026-08-26 19:17
Severity
7.4 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:C/C:L/I:L/A:L
Summary
A security vulnerability has been detected in Open5GS 2.8.0. Affected by this issue is the function hss_ogs_diam_s6a_air_cb of the file src/hss/hss-s6a-path.c of the component S6a Authentication-Information-Request Handler. Such manipulation of the argument Visited-PLMN-Id leads to heap-based buffer overflow. The attack may be performed from remote. The name of the patch is a9c82ee0b590d76a581b0580cb46b598984e2392. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue.
