CVE-2026-108103: Open5GS through 2.8.0 Heap Out-of-Bounds Read via PFCP Dropped DL Traffic Threshold IE
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 27/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.38% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- No fixed version is recorded, but the references include a patch (commit or PR) link.
Low priority for now. See the fix and affected versions sections below.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Open5GS through 2.8.0 contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability in ogs_pfcp_parse_dropped_dl_traffic_threshold() that allows remote unauthenticated attackers to read past IE buffers via short IEs. Attackers can send PFCP Session Establishment or Modification Requests to the UPF on UDP port 8805 with DLPA and DLBY flags set, potentially crashing the UPF.
