Remediation Closing itWhat it takes to close this. Where a vendor fix exists we point at it; where none exists we say so plainly, and can build one. Effort estimates are scoped from the advisory, not from your codebase.
dbcve · scopedLatest Open5GS version after 2.7.6 (contact vendor for specific fixed release number or check GitHub releases)
- Check the current installed version of Open5GS using package manager or binary version information
- Upgrade Open5GS to the latest available version that includes the security fix from commit b4707272c1caf6a7d4dca905694ea55557a0545f
- Verify the upgrade by checking the version number after installation
- Test the S/PGW functionality to ensure the sgwc component handles downlink data notifications correctly after upgrade
