Multiple Vulnerabilities in MongoDB Products


Indian – Computer Emergency Response Team (https://www.cert-in.org.in)


Severity Rating: HIGH


Software Affected


8.2.0 affects versions prior to 8.2.7

8.1.0 affects 8.1.* and prior versions

8.0.0 affects versions prior to 8.0.21

7.0.0 affects versions prior to 7.0.32

Overview


Multiple vulnerabilities have been reported in MongoDB, which could allow an attacker to cause Denial of Service (DoS) conditions and perform limited unauthorized modifications to authentication related data on the targeted system.


Target Audience:

All end-user organizations and individuals using MongoDB.


Risk Assessment:

High risk of unauthorized access to sensitive information.


Impact Assessment:

Potential for denial of service and information disclosure.


Description


MongoDB is a document-based database that stores information in flexible, JSON-like documents rather than traditional tables and rows, making it well suited for handling large or evolving data structures.


Multiple vulnerabilities exist in MongoDB due to improper handling while computing the MD5 checksum of a malformed BSON object under specific conditions and an authorization flaw in the user management command.


Successful exploitation of these vulnerabilities could allow an attacker to cause Denial of Service (DoS) conditions and make limited unauthorized changes to authentication related data associated with another user account on the targeted system.
