Lifecycle Timeline
3DescriptionCVE.org
Certain query operations involving deeply nested $jsonSchema constructs can trigger disproportionate CPU consumption in affected MongoDB deployments, potentially leading to resource exhaustion. The resulting CPU-bound operation cannot be interrupted through standard administrative controls.
AnalysisAI
Denial of service in MongoDB allows an authenticated attacker to exhaust server CPU by submitting query operations that use deeply nested $jsonSchema validation constructs, producing a runaway CPU-bound operation that cannot be halted via standard administrative controls such as killOp. Reported by MongoDB's own CNA (SERVER-125872) and classified as inefficient algorithmic complexity (CWE-407), with no public exploit identified at time of analysis. The inability to interrupt the operation elevates this above a routine resource-consumption bug because normal recovery tooling is ineffective.
