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

An academic study has disclosed a "widespread class" of security vulnerabilities impacting 4G and 5G core networks that, if successfully exploited, could trigger denial-of-service (DoS) attacks and even session hijacking, allowing an attacker to seize control of a user's network session.

The findings have been released by a group of researchers from Singapore's Nanyang Technological University
