CVE intelligence and bounded remediation

CVE-2025-15417 — A vulnerability was identified in Open5GS up to 2.7.6

Medium CVSS 5.5

A vulnerability was identified in Open5GS up to 2.7.6. Affected is the function sgwc_s11_handle_create_session_request of the file src/sgwc/s11-handler.c of the component GTPv2-C F-TEID Handler. Such manipulation leads to denial of service. The attack must be carried out locally. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. The name of the patch is 465273d13ba5d47b274c38c9d1b07f04859178a1. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue.

Matched remediation archetype

Resource exhaustion and denial of service

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Identify attacker-influenced work factors including input size, nesting, compression, fan-out, regex cost, allocation, recursion, retries, and connection lifetime.
  • Map per-request and shared CPU, memory, disk, descriptor, thread, queue, and downstream-service limits.
  • Determine whether authentication, tenancy, quotas, and rate controls apply before expensive processing begins.

Remediate safely

  • Bound input size, nesting, expansion, work, concurrency, queue depth, retries, and execution time before resource-intensive processing.
  • Release resources on every success, error, cancellation, and timeout path and use backpressure instead of unbounded buffering.
  • Update affected components and add small deterministic tests that assert resource ceilings rather than exhausting a host.
