In InitialUEMessage, send a NAS message with a message type
other than Registration Request, Deregistration Request, or Service Request,
the following messages from UE will not be accepted.
We found this issue in not only the initial state but multiple states.
We believe if an attacker has the ability to inject a NAS message to the core,
it can perform a DoS attack on the victim UE.
So, I've fixed that The MME/AMF deletes MME_UE_S1AP_ID/AMF_UE_NGAP_ID,
and will not accept any following messages from the UE.
The AMF will crash on the following locations when it receives a sequence
of NAS messages from a UE.
- ogs_nas_encrypt: Assertion `pkbuf->len' failed. (../lib/nas/common/security.c:86)
- gmm_state_authentication: Assertion `r != OGS_ERROR' failed. (../src/amf/gmm-sm.c:1561)
Besides the crashes found above, an incorrect protocol transition
is identified in Open5GS. Without any Registration/Attach Request message,
when the Identity Response message sent, the Core Network responds
with an Authentication Request message. According to the standard,
only the Registration/Attach Request message can start a state transition
from the 5GMM/EMM-DEREGISTERED state to the 5GMM/EMM-COMMON-PROCEDURE-INITIATED.
So I've modified the relevant code to address these issues.
o Generate the private key as below.
$ openssl genpkey -algorithm X25519 -out /etc/open5gs/hnet/curve25519-1.key
$ openssl ecparam -name prime256v1 -genkey -conv_form compressed -out /etc/open5gs/hnet/secp256r1-2.key
o The private and public keys can be viewed with the command.
The public key is used when creating the SIM.
$ openssl pkey -in /etc/open5gs/hnet/curve25519-1.key -text
$ openssl ec -in /etc/open5gs/hnet/secp256r1-2.key -conv_form compressed -text
In ausf/udm.yaml
hnet:
o Home network public key identifier(PKI) value : 1
Protection scheme identifier : ECIES scheme profile A
- id: 1

key: /etc/open5gs/hnet/curve25519-1.key
o Home network public key identifier(PKI) value : 2
Protection scheme identifier : ECIES scheme profile B

Related to #1779
1. If UE does not use a NAS container for Non-cleartext IEs,
Open5GS AMF will send Registration reject message.
2. If UE sends Non-cleartext IEs without Integrity-protected,
Open5GS AMF will send Registration reject message.
3. If UE does not send NAS container in Security mode complete message,
Open5GS AMF will send Registration reject message.
The AMF shall assign a new 5G-GUTI for a particular UE:
a) during a successful initial registration procedure;
b) during a successful registration procedure
for mobility registration update; and
c) after a successful service request procedure invoked as a response
to a paging request from the network and before the release
of the N1 NAS signalling connection as specified in subclause 5.4.4.1.
The AMF should assign a new 5G-GUTI for a particular UE
during a successful registration procedure
for periodic registration update. The AMF may assign a new 5G-GUTI
at any time for a particular UE by performing
the generic UE configuration update procedure.
