Technical details
A NULL pointer dereference exists in FlexRIC v2.0.0 within the `find_map_e2_node_sad()` function in `src/ric/map_e2_node_sockaddr.c`. When the iApp receives an `E42_RIC_SUBSCRIPTION_REQUEST` referencing a non-existent `global_e2_node_id`, the lookup function returns NULL. In debug builds, this triggers an `assert()` (SIGABRT), while in release builds, the pointer is dereferenced, leading to a segmentation fault (SIGSEGV). A remote, unauthenticated attacker can exploit this by sending a malicious request to SCTP port 36422, resulting in a denial of service of the iApp and co-located RIC services.
