Assigner: MongoDB, Inc.

Description

A use-after-free vulnerability exists in MongoDB Server's server-side JavaScript engine when converting BSON documents to JavaScript arrays. An authenticated user with read privileges who is able to run server-side JavaScript (for example, via $where or $function) can cause the server to access memory that has already been freed. This may result in disclosure of information from the mongod process memory or a denial of service through a server crash.

KEV
KEV Icon
CWE ID Description
CWE-787 The product writes data past the end, or before the beginning, of the intended buffer.
CWE-416 The product reuses or references memory after it has been freed. At some point afterward, the memory may be allocated again and saved in another pointer, while the original pointer references a location somewhere within the new allocation. Any operations using the original pointer are no longer valid because the memory "belongs" to the code that operates on the new pointer.

Executive Summary

This vulnerability is a use-after-free issue in MongoDB Server's server-side JavaScript engine. It occurs when converting BSON documents to JavaScript arrays. An authenticated user with read privileges who can run server-side JavaScript (such as via $where or $function) can cause the server to access memory that has already been freed.

Impact Analysis

Exploitation of this vulnerability may lead to disclosure of information from the mongod process memory or cause a denial of service by crashing the server.

Compliance Impact

This vulnerability allows an authenticated user with read privileges to potentially cause disclosure of information from the mongod process memory or cause a denial of service through a server crash.

Such unauthorized disclosure of information could impact compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR or HIPAA, which require safeguarding sensitive data against unauthorized access and ensuring system availability.

However, the provided information does not explicitly describe the direct effects on compliance with these standards.
