Improper Authorization in MongoDB Server applyOps Command Allows Writes to Arbitrary Internal Storage Tables via Feature Gate Bypass
A security issue in MongoDB Server allows an authenticated user with elevated internal privileges to bypass a disabled feature gate in the applyOps command by specifying an internal replication mode value that was not intended to be client-selectable. This bypass enables execution of container operations that are disabled by default in production configurations, allowing direct storage-engine writes to arbitrary internal storage tables. The authorization check for these operations validates only the operation's namespace, not the actual storage target, enabling writes to unrelated internal metadata or other collections' data.
Use-After-Free in MongoDB Server Query Execution Memory Tracking Subsystem Leads to Denial of Service
A use-after-free security issue exists in the server's query execution memory tracking subsystem. An authenticated user with read privileges can trigger a write to freed heap memory through a sequence of standard database commands, leading to server process crash or potential memory corruption. No user interaction is required.
Insufficient Validation of Shard Key Values in MongoDB Server Leads to Query Operator Injection in Change Stream Post-Image Lookups
In MongoDB, insufficient validation of shard key values during document insertion allowed authenticated users to store documents with specially crafted, operator-shaped objects as shard key values in sharded collections. When change stream events for such documents were processed with the updateLookup full document mode, the crafted values were embedded into internal post-image lookup queries without proper sanitization, causing them to be interpreted as query operators rather than literal equality values. This could result in change stream consumers receiving incorrect post-image documents or encountering non-resumable fatal errors.
Improper Access Restriction of Internal Aggregation Expression in MongoDB Server Leads to Assertion Failure and Denial of Service
An internal aggregation expression in MongoDB Server was incorrectly registered as accessible to any authenticated user rather than being restricted to internal cluster operations. By crafting a malformed index specification within this expression, an authenticated user with read-only privileges could trigger an assertion failure in the index key generation code path. In certain build configurations, this assertion failure results in termination of the mongod process, causing a denial of service to all connected clients.
Unhandled Exception in MongoDB Server JSON Schema Validation Error Generation Leads to Denial of Service
A flaw in MongoDB's JSON Schema validation error generation code allows an authenticated user with readWrite privileges to crash the mongod server. When a BSON document containing an array with a malformed numeric field name fails a $jsonSchema items type constraint, the error generation path performs unsafe numeric conversion on the user-controlled field name without proper exception handling, resulting in an uncaught exception that terminates the server process. This is possible because incoming wire protocol BSON validation does not enforce that array element field names are valid, in-range numeric indices.
Type Confusion in MongoDB Server WiredTiger Storage Engine via Custom Collection Configuration Leads to Persistent Denial of Service
A security issue was discovered in MongoDB where an authenticated user with readWrite privileges could crash the mongod server process. By specifying a custom WiredTiger storage configuration option with an incompatible value during collection creation, a user could cause a type confusion in the storage engine layer. When documents were subsequently read from the misconfigured collection, the resulting mismatch in expected data format led to corrupted memory interpretation and a server crash. The crafted collection configuration persists across restarts, requiring manual operator intervention to remediate.
Race Condition in MongoDB Server Text Index Query Parsing Leads to Heap Use-After-Free and Denial of Service
A race condition in MongoDB server's text index query parsing can cause a heap use-after-free read when handling upsert retry paths. Under certain concurrent index lifecycle operations, a raw pointer to internal text index metadata may be dereferenced after the underlying structures have been freed, leading to a server crash. An authenticated user with readWrite privileges can trigger this condition through specific concurrent text-search and index management operations, resulting in denial of service for all connected clients. This
Null Pointer Dereference in MongoDB Server 2dsphere Index Key Generation Leads to Denial of Service
A security issue exists in MongoDB's 2dsphere index key generation that can cause a server crash due to a null pointer dereference. When a specially crafted GeoJSON document is inserted into a collection with a 2dsphere index, an inconsistency in geometry parsing can leave an internal object in an invalid, partially initialized state. During subsequent index key generation, access to this improperly initialized object results in a null pointer dereference that terminates the mongod process. An authenticated user with write access can use this to cause a denial of service.
Uncontrolled Resource Consumption in MongoDB Server JSON Pointer Parser Leads to Denial of Service
A security issue exists in MongoDB server's JSON Pointer parser used during $jsonSchema query filter processing. When a find command includes a specially crafted $jsonSchema filter field, the parser processes the input without enforcing adequate limits on iteration count or total allocation size, resulting in significant memory amplification. Under concurrent request load, the cumulative memory consumption can exhaust available heap memory, causing the server's out-of-memory handler to terminate the mongod process and deny service to all connected clients.
Improper Session Handling in MongoDB Server LDAP Authorization Integration Leads to Incorrect Role Assignment
A security issue exists in MongoDB's LDAP authorization integration where pooled LDAP connections can retain stale authentication identities after user authentication under certain configurations. Subsequent authorization queries may execute under an unintended LDAP identity rather than the expected one. This can result in incorrect role assignments based on the LDAP directory's access control configuration, potentially allowing an authenticated user to acquire elevated privileges that were not intended by the deployment's authorization policy.
$regexFindAll may crash mongod server when byte-matching multi-byte UTF-8 chars
The $regexFindAll expression can be used by an authenticated user who can run aggregation pipeline stages to crash a MongoDB server (mongod). Under certain specific conditions the regex match can start in the middle of a multi-code-unit character, triggering an assertion during query execution.
MongoDB BI Connector ODBC driver may write outside an allocated buffer when retrieving large floating point values as character data
The MongoDB BI Connector ODBC Driver converts floating point column values into text without checking that the result fits within the destination buffer. When an application reads a sufficiently large floating point value as text, the driver may write beyond the end of that buffer and corrupt adjacent memory. A user who can store data in a collection read through the BI Connector could use this to crash the application performing the read.
Insufficient OIDC endpoint validation could invoke unintended local protocol handlers
MongoDB Schema Manager and MongoDB Atlas SQL ODBC Driver do not validate the scheme of the authorization and token endpoints returned by an OIDC issuer's discovery document. A user induced to connect to an uncontrolled MongoDB deployment using MONGODB-OIDC authentication may have an uncontrolled URI dispatched to their operating system's default protocol handler, potentially exposing credentials or, under certain conditions, resulting in code execution in the user's context.

Insufficient redaction of sensitive configuration values in diagnostic output of MongoDB SQL Schema Builder CLI
MongoDB SQL Schema Builder CLI records its startup configuration to standard output and, when file logging is enabled, to a log file on disk. Certain connection settings were written without redaction, so authentication material supplied by the operator could appear in plaintext in that diagnostic output. A local user with read access to the terminal session or the log directory, or anyone with access to a location where those logs are subsequently collected, could obtain those values.
Improper Authorization in MongoDB Queryable Encryption Maintenance Operations Allows Unauthorized Modification of Other Collections
An issue in MongoDB Server's Queryable Encryption maintenance operations could allow an authenticated user with privileges on one encrypted collection to cause unauthorized modification or destruction of data belonging to a different collection. This is due to insufficient validation of certain internal metadata references before they are used to perform operations on other namespaces.
Use-After-Free in MongoDB Query Execution Engine Leads to Denial of Service and Potential Memory Disclosure
An issue in MongoDB Server's query execution engine could allow an authenticated user with read and write privileges to cause an internal reference to be used after the underlying memory has been freed, when running certain queries against time-series collections. This could result in a server crash or disclosure of freed memory contents within query results.

Missing Authorization in MongoDB Sharded Transaction Commit/Abort Handling Leads to Cross-Shard Data Inconsistency
An issue in MongoDB Server could allow an authenticated user with direct network access to a shard to improperly commit or abort an in-progress prepared transaction, bypassing the intended transaction coordination process. This could result in cross-shard data inconsistency, cluster clock corruption, and violation of transaction atomicity guarantees.

Improper Authorization in MongoDB Server Allows Unauthorized Actions on System Collections via the validate Command
An issue in MongoDB Server could allow an authenticated user with a limited database-scoped role to perform an action against protected system collections that should require more specific privileges. This could result in exposure of collection metadata and, on certain deployment configurations, unauthorized modification of system collection data.
Improper Authorization in MongoDB Server Allows Unauthorized Actions on System Collections
An issue in MongoDB Server could allow an authenticated user with a limited database-scoped role to perform an action against protected system collections that their assigned privileges should not permit. This could result in critical system collections being dropped and recreated without proper authorization.
Improper Input Validation in MongoDB Query Planner Leads to Denial of Service
An issue in MongoDB Server's query planner could allow an authenticated user with read-level privileges to cause the server process to terminate unexpectedly by submitting a specially formed query against a collection with a text index. This could result in a denial of service, affecting connected clients and in-flight operations.
