Process memory corruption via oversized LIMIT digits
Published Aug 28, 2026 · Updated Aug 28, 2026
Stack-based buffer overflow in MongoDB BI Connector ODBC Driver before 1.4.10 allows remote authenticated users to corrupt process memory. The get_limit method copies an unbounded run of digits after a LIMIT clause into a fixed-size stack buffer when optional prefetch is enabled. An authenticated user who can shape SQL sent by a hosting application can crash that process or overwrite adjacent memory in it.

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.
