CVE-2026-82071Insufficient Validation of Storage Engine Configuration Options in MongoDB Server Leads to Out-of-Bounds Write

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects MongoDB Server and 1 other product. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

Insufficient validation of storage engine configuration options in MongoDB Server allows an authenticated user with write privileges to supply crafted parameters during collection creation that override internal storage metadata. This results in an out-of-bounds memory write in the server process, causing a denial of service via server crash, with potential for further impact including arbitrary code execution.
