CVE-2023-23846
Last modified
CVE-2023-23846 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.5/10 on the CVSS scale. Due to insufficient length validation in the Open5GS GTP library versions prior to versions 2.4.13 and 2.5.7, when parsing extension headers in GPRS tunneling protocol (GPTv1-U) messages, a protocol payload with any extension header length set to zero causes an infinite loop. The affected process becomes immediately unresponsive, resulting in denial of service and excessive resource consumption. EPSS estimates a 0.80% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
