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
A vulnerability was determined in Open5GS up to 2.7.7. Affected is the function ogs_sbi_subscription_data_add/ogs_sbi_nf_service_add in the library /lib/sbi/context.c of the component NRF. Executing a manipulation can lead to denial of service. It is possible to launch the attack remotely. The exploit has been publicly disclosed and may be utilized. This patch is called 819db11a08b9736a3576c4f99ceb28f7eb99523a. A patch should be applied to remediate this issue.

Recommended fix High confidence

Open5GS 2.7.8 or later

  1. 1. Identify the Open5GS deployment version by checking the installed package or running 'open5gs --version'
  2. 2. If running version 2.7.7 or below, upgrade to Open5GS version 2.7.8 or later which contains the fix for CVE-2026-8744
  3. 3. For source-based installations, run 'git fetch origin' followed by 'git checkout <release-tag>' for version 2.7.8 or later, then rebuild and reinstall
  4. 4. For package-based installations, update via the distribution's package manager (e.g., 'apt update && apt upgrade open5gs' or equivalent)
  5. 5. After upgrade, restart all Open5GS services to ensure the patched code is loaded
  6. 6. Verify the running version matches the fixed release using 'open5gs --version'
