Official description Straight from the sourceThe vendor's or NVD's own wording, published unedited. Authoritative, but often terse — it says what broke, rarely what to do.

NVD · unedited
OpenAirInterface V2.2.0 AMF crashes when it fails to decode the message. Not all decode failures result in a crash. But the crash is consistent for particular inputs. An example input in hex stream is 80 00 00 0E 00 00 01 00 0F 80 02 02 40 00 58 00 01 88.

Technical summary Written by usOur analysis, written from the advisory, the CVSS vector and the affected-version data. It adds context the advisory leaves out, and never invents facts that are not in the source.

dbcve analysis · high confidence

The OpenAirInterface AMF v2.2.0 contains a vulnerability where specifically crafted message inputs cause a crash during message decoding. The provided hex input (80 00 00 0E 00 00 01 00 0F 80 02 02 40 00 58 00 01 88) triggers a consistent crash, indicating missing or improper error handling in the decoding logic that fails to gracefully handle malformed ASN.1 or NAS messages.

MitigationUpgrade to a patched version of OpenAirInterface that properly handles decode failures without crashing, or implement input validation and exception handling around the message decoding routines to prevent denial of service.

Am I affected? How to checkSteps we derive from the advisory and the affected-version data, so you can decide whether this CVE reaches your setup. They are a guide, not a scan — your own configuration is the authority.

dbcve checks

Work through these to decide whether this CVE applies to you.

  1. Identify OpenAirInterface AMF installation
    Locate the OpenAirInterface AMF installation directory and confirm the presence of the AMF binary or service. Check system processes for running AMF-related processes.
    Affected if OpenAirInterface AMF version 2.2.0 is installed and running
  2. Determine the exact AMF version
    Query the installed AMF version using the version flag or check the software manifest/binary metadata. Common methods include: oai-amf --version, checking docker image tags, or reviewing installation logs.
    Affected if The installed version is exactly 2.2.0 as reported in the affected versions
  3. Verify message decoding functionality is exposed
    Determine if the AMF is configured to accept external NAS or ASN.1 messages. Check configuration files for exposed interfaces (such as N1/N2 interfaces) that process incoming messages.
    Affected if The AMF has exposed interfaces that accept NAS or ASN.1 encoded messages from external sources
  4. Monitor for crash behavior with malformed input
    If feasible, review application logs or system crash dumps for evidence of decoding-related crashes. The specific hex input (80 00 00 0E 00 00 01 00 0F 80 02 02 40 00 58 00 01 88) triggers the crash.
    Affected if Logs or crash dumps show decoding failures that result in process termination rather than graceful error handling

A system is affected if OpenAirInterface AMF version 2.2.0 is running and configured to process incoming NAS or ASN.1 messages, where malformed messages can crash the decoding routine.
