Detailsinfo

A vulnerability, which was classified as critical, has been found in MongoDB C# Driver up to 3.12.x. Affected by this issue is some unknown processing of the component BSON Handler. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a type conversion vulnerability. Using CWE to declare the problem leads to CWE-704. The product does not correctly convert an object, resource, or structure from one type to a different type. Impacted is integrity, and availability. CVE summarizes:

A numeric-type conversion flaw in the BSON handling library of the MongoDB C# Driver allows an out-of-range binary subtype value supplied through untrusted textual input to bypass the library's binary-element integrity checks. When such a value is later encoded, it is narrowed to a smaller wire representation, producing binary elements that misdeclare their type or length. An unauthenticated party able to supply text parsed by an affected application can cause it to emit and persist malformed binary data, which subsequent readers either reject with an error or silently interpret as shorter than the data that was validated.

The advisory is shared for download at jira.mongodb.org. This vulnerability is handled as CVE-2026-114654 since 10/21/2026. The exploitation is known to be easy. The attack may be launched remotely. No form of authentication is required for exploitation. There are neither technical details nor an exploit publicly available.

Upgrading to version 3.13.0 eliminates this vulnerability.
