CVE-2026-10117: Open5GS nghttp2-server.c ogs_pool_id_calloc denial of service
A weakness has been identified in Open5GS up to 2.7.7. This issue affects the function ogs_pool_id_calloc in the library /lib/sbi/nghttp2-server.c. Executing a manipulation can lead to denial of service. The attack may be launched remotely. The exploit has been made available to the public and could be used for attacks. It is best practice to apply a patch to resolve this issue.
Security readout for executives and security teams
Plain-English summary
Open5GS versions 2.7.0 through 2.7.7 have a remotely reachable denial-of-service weakness in SBI HTTP/2 server handling. A successful attack can disrupt affected 5G core network functions rather than expose data. Public exploit material is reported, but the provided sources do not show CISA KEV listing or confirmed active exploitation.
Executive priority
Treat this as a near-term availability risk for Open5GS-based mobile core environments. It is not described as data theft or code execution, but public exploit availability raises urgency for exposed or production deployments.
Technical view
The issue is reported in /lib/sbi/nghttp2-server.c, affecting ogs_pool_id_calloc. VulDB maps it to CWE-404 and CVSS 4.0 score 5.3, with network attack vector, low complexity, low privileges, no user interaction, and low availability impact.
Likely exposure
Exposure is most relevant where Open5GS 2.7.0-2.7.7 network functions are deployed and their SBI-related services are reachable by authenticated or low-privileged remote actors. Internet exposure is not established by the sources.
Exploitation context
VulDB reports that exploit material is publicly available and could be used for attacks. The provided bundle does not cite confirmed in-the-wild exploitation, and KEV is false, so active exploitation should not be claimed.
Researcher notes
Evidence is limited to public advisory data and the referenced issue. Do not assume broader product impact, unauthenticated exploitation, or a fixed release unless confirmed by Open5GS guidance. Validate reachability and version exposure before escalation.
Mitigation direction
Identify all Open5GS deployments and versions in use.
Prioritize upgrading or applying vendor patches when Open5GS guidance identifies the fixed version.
Restrict Open5GS service reachability to trusted network peers where architecture permits.
Monitor affected network functions for crashes, restarts, or unexplained service degradation.
Track Open5GS issue 4474 and VulDB entry 367295 for remediation updates.
Validation and detection
Inventory Open5GS instances running versions 2.7.0 through 2.7.7.
Confirm affected network functions are not reachable from untrusted networks.
Review service logs and health metrics for denial-of-service symptoms.
Check vendor issue 4474 for patch or release status.
Verify compensating controls limit remote access to expected peers only.

CWE-404: Exact CWE lookup
Use the exact CWE identifier as the starting point before reviewing related ATT&CK behavior. Open the exact CWE lookup page first, then review the ATT&CK searches from that MITRE weakness context. This is a Glexia lookup hint, not an official ATT&CK mapping.
These fields come from the CVE record and ADP containers, not from Glexia's Take. They preserve time-varying source decisions such as CISA SSVC, KEV status, CVSS metrics, and provider references.
We collect every scored CVSS vector available in the official CNA and ADP containers. When more than one version is present, the table keeps the source vectors side by side instead of collapsing them into the highest score.

Improper Resource Shutdown or Release
Improper Resource Shutdown or Release represents a recurring weakness pattern that can create exploitable paths when design, validation, or implementation controls are missing.
