Open5Gs · Open5Gs · CVE-2026-8746
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Open5GS versions prior to 2.7.8
**Description**
A use after free flaw exists in the NRF component within the `discover handler()` function located in the `/lib/sbi/nghttp2-server.c` library. This issue allows a remote attacker to manipulate the system, potentially leading to a crash or unauthorized code execution. Use after free occurs when an application continues to use a pointer after it has been freed, which can corrupt memory.
**Recommendations**
Update to a version newer than 2.7.7.
As a temporary workaround, restrict access to the NRF component to minimize the risk of exploitation.
