Unverifiable BSON builder process termination
Published Sep 3, 2026 · Updated Sep 3, 2026
MongoDB .NET/C# Driver is listed as affected, but no published advisory links it to the reported BSON builder flaw. The supplied source text instead attributes an incorrect length conversion and out-of-bounds read on an oversized, nonterminated field name to the MongoDB C++ Driver. Without an authoritative record reconciling the product and version range, impact and reachability for the .NET/C# Driver remain unverifiable.
