"summary" : "free5GC UDM incorrectly returns 500 for empty supi path parameter in DELETE sdm-subscriptions request",
"details" : "**Impact** \nThis is an Improper Error Handling vulnerability with Information Exposure implications. \n- **Security Impact**: The UDM incorrectly converts a downstream 400 Bad Request (from UDR) into a 500 Internal Server Error when handling DELETE requests with an empty `supi` path parameter. This leaks internal error handling behavior and makes it difficult for clients to distinguish between client-side errors and server-side failures. \n- **Functional Impact**: When a client sends a DELETE request with an empty `supi` (e.g., double slashes `//` in URL path), the UDM forwards the malformed request to UDR, which correctly returns 400. However, UDM propagates this as 500 SYSTEM_FAILURE instead of returning the appropriate 400 error to the client. This violates REST API best practices for DELETE operations. \n- **Affected Parties**: All deployments of free5GC v4.0.1 using the UDM Nudm_SDM service with DELETE operations on sdm-subscriptions endpoint.\n\n**Patches** \nYes, the issue has been patched. \nThe fix is implemented in PR free5gc/udm#79. \nUsers should upgrade to the next release of free5GC that includes this commit.\n\n**Workarounds** \nThere is no direct workaround at the application level. The recommendation is to apply the provided patch or implement API gateway-level validation to reject DELETE requests with empty path parameters before they reach UDM.",
