Title

free5GC UDR: Fail-open handling in PolicyDataSubsToNotifyPost allows unintended subscription creation

Summary

free5GC UDR is the user data repository (UDR) for free5GC, an an open-source project for 5th generation (5G) mobile core networks. In versions up to and including 1.4.2, a fail-open request handling flaw in the UDR service causes the `/nudr-dr/v2/policy-data/subs-to-notify` POST handler to continue processing requests even after request body retrieval or deserialization errors. This may allow unintended creation of Policy Data notification subscriptions with invalid, empty, or partially processed input, depending on downstream processor behavior. As of time of publication, a patched version is not available.

Summary

free5GC UDR: Fail-open handling in PolicyDataSubsToNotifyPost allows unintended subscription creation

Details

Summary

A fail-open request handling flaw in the UDR service causes the /nudr-dr/v2/policy-data/subs-to-notify POST handler to continue processing requests even after request body retrieval or deserialization errors.

This may allow unintended creation of Policy Data notification subscriptions with invalid, empty, or partially processed input, depending on downstream processor behavior.

Details

The endpoint POST /nudr-dr/v2/policy-data/subs-to-notify is intended to create a Policy Data notification subscription only after the HTTP request body has been successfully read and parsed into a valid PolicyDataSubscription object. [file:93]

In the free5GC UDR implementation, the function HandlePolicyDataSubsToNotifyPost in NFs/udr/internal/sbi/api_datarepository.go does not terminate execution after input-processing failures. [file:93]

The request flow is:

The handler calls c.GetRawData() to read the HTTP request body. [file:93]
If GetRawData() fails, the handler sends an HTTP 500 error response, but does not return. [file:93]
The handler then calls openapi.Deserialize(policyDataSubscription, reqBody, "application/json"). [file:93]
If deserialization fails, the handler sends an HTTP 400 error response, but again does not return. [file:93]
Execution continues and the handler still invokes s.Processor().PolicyDataSubsToNotifyPostProcedure(c,policyDataSubscription). [file:93]

As a result, the endpoint operates in a fail-open manner: request processing may continue after fatal input validation or body handling errors, instead of being safely aborted. [file:93]

This differs from safer handlers in the same file, which use a helper pattern that explicitly returns on body read or deserialization failure before calling the corresponding processor routine. [file:93]

Security Impact

This issue affects a write-capable API that creates Policy Data notification subscriptions. [file:93]
Because execution continues after body read or parsing failure, the processor may receive an uninitialized, partially initialized, or otherwise unintended PolicyDataSubscription object. [file:93]

The exact runtime impact depends on downstream processor behavior and storage validation. [file:93]
At minimum, this is a security-relevant robustness flaw that can lead to inconsistent request handling; under certain runtime conditions it may allow creation of invalid or unintended subscription state. [file:93]

Reproduction Status

The code path has been statically confirmed. [file:93] A complete runtime proof of unintended subscription creation after GetRawData() or deserialization failure has not yet been established. [file:93]

Patch

The handler should immediately terminate after sending an error response for body read or deserialization failure. [file:93]

A minimal fix is to add missing return statements in HandlePolicyDataSubsToNotifyPost:

reqBody, err := c.GetRawData()
if err != nil {
    logger.DataRepoLog.Errorf("Get Request Body error: %+v", err)
    pd := openapi.ProblemDetailsSystemFailure(err.Error())
    c.Set(sbi.IN_PB_DETAILS_CTX_STR, pd.Cause)
    c.JSON(http.StatusInternalServerError, pd)
    return
}

err = openapi.Deserialize(&policyDataSubscription, reqBody, "application/json")
if err != nil {
    logger.DataRepoLog.Errorf("Deserialize Request Body error: %+v", err)
    pd := util.ProblemDetailsMalformedReqSyntax(err.Error())
    c.Set(sbi.IN_PB_DETAILS_CTX_STR, pd.Cause)
    c.JSON(http.StatusBadRequest, pd)
    return
}

Additionally, the deserialization call should pass a pointer to the destination object so that the parsed body is written into the intended structure. [file:93]

Details

The issue is compounded by the handler's deserialization call, which passes policyDataSubscription directly to openapi.Deserialize(...) instead of passing a pointer to the destination object. This inconsistent usage further increases the risk that request processing continues with an empty, partially initialized, or otherwise unintended subscription object. [file:93]

In versions up to and including 1.4.2, a fail-open request handling flaw in the UDR service causes the `/nudr-dr/v2/policy-data/subs-to-notify` POST handler to continue processing requests even after request body retrieval or deserialization errors. This may allow unintended creation of Policy Data notification subscriptions with invalid, empty, or partially processed input, depending on downstream processor behavior. As of time of publication, a patched version is not available."
