FAQ
Latest Global CVEs
An authenticated user with the read role may read limited amounts of uninitialized stack memory via specially-crafted issuances of the filemd5 command
The $_internalApplyOplogUpdate aggregation pipeline stage can be used to execute a document diff containing a malformed binary diff to return memory out-of-bounds or crash the server. $_internalApplyOplogUpdate can be executed by any authenticated user with access to the aggregate command.
An authorized user could trigger a server crash by running a query with a 2dsphere index on a field that stores a GeoJSON GeometryCollection containing a Polygon with a strict-winding CRS. Strict-winding polygons are intentionally unsupported for indexing, but the guard that rejects them does not inspect members of a GeometryCollection, allowing the unsafe path to be reached which ends with an ensuing null-pointer dereference.
The ldapQueryPassword parameter, when set through the runtime setParameter command, will log the new password to the mongod.log file in plain text.

This stems from insufficient separation between user-controlled document fields and internal metadata in certain execution paths.
