A vulnerability was identified in Free5GC up to 4.1.0. This affects the function ResolveNodeIdToIp of the file internal/sbi/processor/datapath.go of the component SMF. The manipulation leads to denial of service. Remote exploitation of the attack is possible. The exploit is publicly available and might be used. It is recommended to apply a patch to fix this issue.

The free5GC UPF suffers from a lack of bounds checking on the SEID when processing PFCP Session Deletion Requests. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send a request with a very large SEID (e.g., 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF) that causes an integer conversion/underflow in LocalNode.DeleteSess() / LocalNode.Sess() when a uint64 SEID is converted to int and used in index arithmetic. This leads to a negative index into n.sess and a Go runtime panic, resulting in a denial of service (UPF crash). The issue has been reproduced on free5GC v4.1.0 with crashes observed in the session lookup/deletion path in internal/pfcp/node.go; other versions may also be affected. No authentication is required.
