CVE-2026-13072 Details
Description
When compute mode is enabled on a standalone mongod instance, insufficient validation of externally sourced BSON data during aggregation pipeline processing can result in memory corruption, potentially leading to process termination or other unintended behavior. This configuration is non-default and requires explicit enablement at startup.
A vulnerability exists in MongoDB standalone instances with compute mode enabled, where insufficient validation of externally sourced BSON data during aggregation pipeline processing can lead to memory corruption. This issue may cause process termination or other unintended behaviors. The vulnerability arises from the aggregation pipeline's handling of external BSON data, which lacks proper validation, creating a risk of memory-related issues.
Users can upgrade to MongoDB versions 8.2.12, 8.0.28, 7.0.39, 8.3.7, or 9.0.0-rc1 to address this vulnerability.
