Researchers Report 84 Flaws in 4G and 5G Cores, Including a Session Hijacking Flaw

Researchers from Nanyang Technological University identified 84 security flaws across 4G and 5G core network implementations. These vulnerabilities span a widespread class of issues and could enable denial-of-service attacks or session hijacking if exploited to compromise user network sessions.

Why it matters: Mobile carriers and telecom infrastructure operators must assess their 4G and 5G deployments for these flaws, as exploitation could disrupt service availability or allow attackers to impersonate subscribers.
