CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedAn out-of-bounds read vulnerability in the MongoDB C Driver affects applications utilizing this driver, allowing for potential termination when processing malformed server-final messages. Although the severity is rated low, it could be exploited by a malicious server or network intermediary to disrupt service. Organizations using MongoDB should prioritize this issue to ensure application stability and prevent unexpected terminations.
Original NVD Description
An out-of-bounds read in SCRAM authentication response parsing in the MongoDB C Driver can read one byte beyond a fixed-size buffer when processing a malformed server-final message. A server or network intermediary able to provide this message before server-signature verification can cause the application using the driver to terminate. The extra byte is not returned through the protocol.
