CVE-2023-37002

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Open5GS MME versions prior to 2.6.4

Description The issue allows an attacker to send a malformed ASN.1 packet over the S1AP interface, triggering an assertion that can cause the MME to crash, resulting in denial of service. This can be achieved by sending an "E-RAB Modification Indication" message without the required MME UE S1AP ID field.

Recommendations For versions prior to 2.6.4, update to version 2.6.4 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the S1AP interface to minimize the risk of exploitation. Avoid processing E-RAB Modification Indication messages missing the MME UE S1AP ID field until the issue is resolved.
