A security issue in the MongoDB Server aggregation framework allows an authenticated user with limited read privileges to bypass view-level authorization checks and access data from unauthorized collections when Atlas Search features are in use. The issue stems from insufficient validation of an internal command parameter that can be set by external clients, causing a security check to be improperly skipped.

AnalysisAI
MongoDB Server 8.3.0-8.3.8 exposes an authorization bypass in the aggregation framework that allows a low-privilege authenticated user to read data from collections they are not authorized to access. The bypass is reachable only when Atlas Search features are active and works by manipulating an internal command parameter that the server failed to guard from external client input, causing a view-level security check to be skipped. …
