Impact is limited to crashing the process (A:H, C:N/I:N); AV:L reflects that only apps feeding local/non-wire BSON to decode reach the flaw, and no privileges or interaction are needed.

DescriptionCVE.org

The MongoDB Python Driver's binary accelerator can read outside a buffer when an application decodes malformed BSON containing a truncated regular-expression element without a trailing NUL byte. An actor who can supply BSON to the documented decode or decode_all API can cause the application process to terminate when the C extension is loaded. The driver's normal database wire-protocol path does not reach this code.

AnalysisAI

A malformed-BSON out-of-bounds read in the MongoDB Python Driver (PyMongo) can terminate the host Python process when the native C accelerator (_cbson) is loaded. The flaw is reachable only when an application itself passes attacker-controlled BSON into the documented bson.decode() or decode_all() APIs with a truncated regular-expression element that lacks a trailing NUL byte; the driver's normal MongoDB wire-protocol query path never reaches this code, and installations running the pure-Python fallback are unaffected. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Exploitation requires an application that explicitly passes attacker-controlled BSON to PyMongo's bson.decode() or decode_all() API while the native C extension (_cbson accelerator) is loaded, which is the default when the compiled wheel is installed; the malicious input must be a truncated regular-expression element with no trailing NUL byte. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment This is a moderate, availability-only issue that most deployments can deprioritize. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario Full exploit scenario with step-by-step reproduction available after sign-in.
Remediation No vendor-released patch with an exact fixed version is identified in the provided data; the authoritative tracking reference is the MongoDB JIRA issue PYTHON-6110 at https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/PYTHON-6110, and administrators should monitor it for the patched PyMongo release and upgrade as soon as it ships. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.
