CVE-2026-30070 · Severity: high · CVSS 7.5 · Published 2026-08-27

free5GC is an open-source 5G mobile network core software. A flaw in the Subscriber Data Management (SDM) component causes the service to crash when receiving HTTP requests with a missing 'supported-features' query parameter. An attacker can send crafted requests to render the UDM (User Data Management) service unavailable, disrupting mobile subscriber authentication and data services.

## Technical details

The vulnerability is an out-of-bounds array access in the HandleGetSharedData function of free5GC's UDM SDM module. The function assumes the 'supported-features' query parameter is present and attempts to access its first element (supportedFeatures[0]) without validating slice length or presence. When the parameter is omitted or empty, a Go runtime panic ("index out of range") is triggered, crashing the service and causing a denial of service. Attack vector is network-based; no authentication is required. A simple HTTP GET request to /nudm-sdm/v2/shared-data without the query parameter is sufficient to trigger the crash. Patches are expected to add proper validation of the supportedFeatures slice before access.
