CVE-2025-55904 — Open5Gs Open5Gs security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 4

Open5GS v2.7.5, prior to commit 67ba7f92bbd7a378954895d96d9d7b05d5b64615, is vulnerable to a NULL pointer dereference when a multipart/related HTTP POST request with an empty HTTP body is sent to the SBI of either AMF, AUSF, BSF, NRF, NSSF, PCF, SMF, UDM, or UDR, resulting in a denial of service. This occurs in the parse_multipart function in lib/sbi/message.c.

Matched remediation archetype

Buffer bounds, memory safety, and memory corruption

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

Check exposure

  • Identify affected native-code versions, build flags, architectures, parsers, codecs, drivers, and input paths in all shipped artifacts.
  • Determine whether untrusted data reaches the affected routine and the process privilege, sandbox, and network exposure.
  • Confirm statically linked, vendored, firmware, and platform-provided copies, not only package-manager records.

Remediate safely

  • Apply the maintained upstream correction or replace the affected component, then rebuild every dependent artifact from clean inputs.
  • Adopt bounds-checked interfaces, validated sizes and integer conversions, clear ownership, and memory-safe components where practical.
  • Enable supported compiler and runtime hardening and add sanitized tests and fuzz regression seeds derived from non-weaponized fixtures.
