Does this affect you?

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

EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 0.27%, higher than 18% of scored CVEs.

Improper state management in MongoDB libmongocrypt can cause provider-specific data to be treated as an incompatible type when cleaning up a key document containing duplicate masterKey fields. An authenticated actor who can modify key vault documents, or a server that returns such a key document, can cause invalid memory access and invalid frees in the client process. This can terminate the application or corrupt process memory.
