Since the vendor has not responded or released a fix, users should monitor official Open5GS channels for updates. In the meantime, consider implementing network-level protections to limit exposure of the AUSF component to untrusted networks.

Description

CVE-2026-8745 is a medium severity vulnerability in Open5GS versions up to 2.7.7. It affects the ogs_timer_add function within the AUSF component, specifically in the /src/ausf/nausf-handler.c library. The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service by manipulating this function. Although an exploit is publicly available, there are no known exploits in the wild at this time. The Open5GS project has been informed but has not yet responded or provided a patch.
