CVE-2026-44324: free5GC's UDR nudr-dr DELETE amf-subscriptions panics on missing UE state via nil interface type assertion (single authenticated request)
(updated )
free5GC’s UDR nudr-dr DELETE /subscription-data/{ueId}/{servingPlmnId}/ee-subscriptions/{subsId}/amf-subscriptions handler panics on a single authenticated request against a fresh UDR instance when the supplied ueId does not exist in UESubsCollection. The processor checks value, ok := udrSelf.UESubsCollection.Load(ueId) and sets a 404 USER_NOT_FOUND problem-details on the miss path, but execution continues and immediately runs value.(*udr_context.UESubsData) – a Go type assertion on a nil interface, which panics with interface conversion: interface {} is nil, not *context.UESubsData. Gin recovery converts the panic into HTTP 500, but the endpoint remains repeatedly panicable.
This is the no-precondition sibling of free5gc/free5gc#919: same handler, same bug pattern (set pd, do not return, then dereference), but the panic site is the nil-interface type assertion at line 61 instead of the nil-pointer deref at line 69. No earlier EE-subscription create is required.
This endpoint requires a valid nudr-dr OAuth2 access token (PR:L, NOT PR:N), so this is scored as an authenticated panic-DoS, not as an unauth-bypass finding.
