Mongodb Mongodb
CVE-2026-18694
An issue in MongoDB Server's geospatial query processing could allow an authenticated user with write privileges to cause certain malformed geometry data to be stored and later processed without proper validation. Subsequent queries against this data could then result in the server accessing memory outside its intended bounds. This could result in a server crash (denial of service) and may expose a limited amount of server process memory.
What this means for your business
- It affects Mongodb. It matters if your company, or a supplier that handles your data, runs it.
- An attacker can use it remotely, over a network, with an ordinary user login, and without anyone at your company clicking anything.
