Authenticated crash via duplicate userRoles initialization
Published Jun 9, 2026 · Updated Jun 9, 2026
Reachable assertion in MongoDB Server allows remote authenticated users to crash mongod through a crafted cross-shard aggregation request. The aggregation runtime-constant path treats router-derived and request-supplied userRoles data as the same query constant, so duplicate initialization reaches a fatal assertion. Network access and valid database credentials are required; the disclosed consequence is process termination and service interruption only.

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=7.0.0 <7.0.35
- Affected versionversion=8.0.0 <8.0.24
- Affected versionversion=8.2.0 <8.2.10
- Affected versionversion=8.3.0 <8.3.3
