MongoDB Server's Queryable Encryption feature is vulnerable, allowing an authenticated user with access to one encrypted collection to potentially modify or delete data in another collection due to inadequate validation of internal metadata references. This could lead to unauthorized data manipulation, posing significant risks to data integrity. Organizations using MongoDB, particularly those implementing Queryable Encryption, should prioritize addressing this vulnerability to safeguard their data.
