CVE-2026-40245 Details
Description
Free5GC is an open-source Linux Foundation project for 5th generation (5G) mobile core networks. Versions 4.2.1 and below contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the UDR (Unified Data Repository) service. The handler for GET /nudr-dr/v2/application-data/influenceData/subs-to-notify sends an HTTP 400 error response when required query parameters are missing but does not return afterward. Execution continues into the processor function, which queries the data repository and appends the full list of Traffic Influence Subscriptions, including SUPI/IMSI values, to the response body. An unauthenticated attacker with network access to the 5G Service Based Interface can retrieve stored subscriber identifiers with a single parameterless HTTP GET request. The SUPI is the most sensitive subscriber identifier in 5G networks, and its exposure undermines the privacy guarantees of the 3GPP SUCI concealment mechanism at the core network level. A similar bypass exists when sending a malformed snssai parameter due to the same missing return pattern.
A vulnerability allowing information disclosure has been identified in the Free5GC Unified Data Repository (UDR) service, affecting versions through 4.2.1. The issue arises in the endpoint GET /nudr-dr/v2/application-data/influenceData/subs-to-notify, which is part of the 5G Service Based Interface. The endpoint fails to properly validate query parameters, allowing an unauthenticated attacker with network access to retrieve sensitive subscriber identifiers, specifically SUPI and IMSI values, with a simple parameterless HTTP GET request. This vulnerability undermines the privacy protections of the 3GPP SUCI concealment mechanism, exposing the most critical subscriber identifier in 5G networks.
Users can update to Free5GC version 4.2.2 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched by adding the necessary return statements to prevent the unintentional leakage of subscriber data.
