Information disclosure or crash via BSON ownership mismatch
Published Jun 12, 2026 · Updated Jun 12, 2026
Use-after-free in MongoDB Server allows remote authenticated users to read process memory or crash mongod through server-side JavaScript. The bsonObjToArray conversion applies ownership semantics that do not match bsonGetImmutable, leaving JavaScript array data able to reference freed BSON storage. Exploitation requires read privileges and enabled server-side JavaScript, such as $where or $function; consequences are process-memory disclosure or a server crash.

Exploitability
Present is not the same as exploitable
Compare your product and version with the public record. A matching version still requires validation against your environment.
Is a vulnerable build present?
Compare these published version ranges with your installed build and any vendor patches.
- Affected versionversion=4.4.0 <=4.4.30
- Affected versionversion=5.0 <=5.0.33
- Affected versionversion=6.0 <=6.0.28
- Affected versionversion=7.0.0 <=7.0.36
- Affected versionversion=8.0.0 <=8.0.25
- Affected versionversion=8.2.0 <=8.2.10
