Description
This security bulletin contains information about 5 vulnerabilities.
1) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-84964)
CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free
CVSSv4: 8.2 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to a double free in the OpenSSL-based TLS certificate revocation checking path of the MongoDB C Driver when processing specially formed certificate data during a TLS handshake. A remote attacker can provide a crafted certificate to cause a denial of service.
The TLS endpoint must already be trusted by the connecting client application.
2) Integer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-84965)
CWE-ID: CWE-190 - Integer overflow
CVSSv4: 5.7 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to an integer overflow in the BSON library\'s JSON parsing code when parsing a sufficiently large JSON input. A remote attacker can supply a sufficiently large JSON input to cause a denial of service.
Only builds where sizes are 32 bits are affected.
3) Heap-based buffer overflow (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-84969)
CWE-ID: CWE-122 - Heap-based Buffer Overflow
CVSSv4: 6.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to alter data outside the intended buffer.
The vulnerability exists due to a heap-based buffer overflow in the BSON-to-JSON conversion helpers when encoding a binary field in output cut short at a caller-configured length limit. A remote attacker can supply a document containing a binary field to alter data outside the intended buffer.
4) Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-84963)
CWE-ID: CWE-681 - Incorrect Conversion between Numeric Types
CVSSv4: 6.9 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:N/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to alter data.
The vulnerability exists due to incorrect numeric conversion in the JSON-to-BSON parser when processing unusually large JSON string values. A remote attacker can supply crafted JSON input to alter data.
5) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-81524)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: 5.3 [CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:L/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a remote user to access a different database or collection than intended.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation in namespace strings in the MongoDB C Driver when processing untrusted database or collection names. A remote user can supply a specially crafted name containing dot or NUL characters to access a different database or collection than intended.
