Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects MongoDB libmongocrypt. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

An integer underflow in the KMS endpoint-parsing logic of MongoDB libmongocrypt can cause an allocation failure that terminates the application process. This can occur when an authenticated user modifies a key document in the key vault collection, or when an application accepts a KMS endpoint containing a colon after its path or query during key creation. The issue does not access memory outside its allocated bounds.
