CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedAn authenticated user with write privileges in MongoDB's JavaScript scripting engine can exploit a vulnerability to execute malicious code within the query scope of other users, potentially corrupting query results and causing denial of service for their operations. While the impact is confined to the scripting engine's execution sandbox, it poses a medium risk to database integrity and availability. Organizations using MongoDB, particularly those with multiple users and complex query operations, should prioritize addressing this vulnerability to mitigate potential disruptions.
Original NVD Description
An issue in MongoDB Server's JavaScript scripting engine could allow an authenticated user with write privileges to cause code they control to be executed within the query scope of other users, through a specially crafted stored value processed during an internal maintenance cycle. This could result in corruption of query results affecting other users and denial of service targeted at their operations on the same database. Impact is limited to the scripting engine's execution sandbox, which does not provide access to database, filesystem, or network resources.
