Local log read access with low privileges is sufficient; scope changes because recovered KMS credentials compromise encrypted data in an external key management system.

2DescriptionCVE.org
A weakness in the client-side encryption configuration surface of the MongoDB C
Driver causes sensitive key-management credential material supplied by the application to be reproduced verbatim in the driver's human-readable diagnostic representation of its client settings, instead of being masked as other secret fields are. A party able to read the application's logs, diagnostic output, or a process memory dump may thereby recover the plaintext credentials and use them to decrypt protected field data.
AnalysisAI
Sensitive KMS provider credentials supplied for client-side field-level encryption (CSFLE) in the MongoDB C# Driver are reproduced in plaintext within the driver's diagnostic string representation of its client settings, rather than being masked like other secret fields. Any party with read access to application logs, diagnostic output, or process memory dumps can recover these credentials and independently invoke the key management service to unwrap data-encryption keys, compromising all data protected by those keys. …

Attack ChainAIDerived
Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata
Vulnerability AssessmentAI
| Exploitation | Exploitation requires two concurrent conditions: (1) the target application must use the MongoDB C# Driver with client-side field-level encryption (CSFLE) or Queryable Encryption actively configured, supplying KMS provider credentials via AutoEncryptionOptions or an equivalent configuration object - this is a non-default deployment mode not present in standard MongoDB .NET applications; and (2) the attacker must have read access to the application's log output, a log aggregation or SIEM platform ingesting those logs, or a process memory dump of the .NET application host. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment. |
| Risk Assessment | The CVSS 4.0 vector (AV:L/AC:L/AT:P/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/SC:H) accurately captures the threat model: local or log-system read access with low privileges is sufficient, but AT:P correctly constrains scope to deployments where CSFLE is actively configured - a non-default state for most MongoDB applications. … 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 | The primary fix is to upgrade the MongoDB C# Driver (MongoDB.Driver NuGet package) to version 3.11.1 or later, available at https://www.nuget.org/packages/MongoDB.Driver/3.11.1. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report. |
