CVE-2026-82057 · Type Confusion in MongoDB Server WiredTiger Storage Engine via Custom Collection Configuration Leads to Persistent Denial of Service

This page contains facts from public vulnerability sources. Check the original advisory before updating.

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.
