Technical details
The Type6NasIe::Validate() function truncates a 32-bit length value to 16 bits, allowing malformed length fields in 5GS Mobile Identity information elements to bypass the only validation gate. When processing a crafted NAS Registration Request with a malformed IMEISV identity type, the DecodeImeisv() function performs an unbounded out-of-bounds heap read, crashing the AMF process. An unauthenticated remote attacker can trigger this via NGAP/SCTP without valid credentials, SIM card, or prior authentication.
Affected products
