Synopsis

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 79251dc8-5bc5-11f0-834f-b42e991fc52e advisory.

MongoDB Server's mongos component can become unresponsive to new connections due to incorrect handling of incomplete data. This affects MongoDB when configured with load balancer support.
Required Configuration:
This affects MongoDB sharded clusters when configured with load balancer support for mongos using HAProxy on specified ports.
