Recommended fix High confidence

2.7.6

  1. Backup your current Open5GS configuration and database
  2. Stop all running Open5GS services (amf, smf, upf, etc.)
  3. Upgrade Open5GS to version 2.7.6 using your package manager or by compiling from source (e.g., `git checkout v2.7.6` and rebuild)
  4. Verify the new version is installed (e.g., `open5gs --version` should show 2.7.6)
  5. Restore your configuration from the backup if needed
  6. Start the Open5GS services and verify they run without errors
