MongoDB 7.0.x < 7.0.43 / 8.0.x < 8.0.32 / 8.3.x < 8.3.11 Memory Corruption

high Nessus Plugin ID 347950

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of MongoDB installed on the remote host is 7.0.x prior to 7.0.43, 8.0.x prior to 8.0.32, or 8.3.x prior to 8.3.11. It is, therefore, affected by a memory corruption vulnerability:

 - A race condition in the document value layer of MongoDB Server can allow concurrent server threads to operate on the same internal memory without synchronization, leading to memory corruption. An authenticated user with standard database privileges may potentially terminate the server and corrupt process memory.
 (CVE-2026-89099)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to MongoDB version 7.0.43 / 8.0.32 / 8.3.11 or later.
