CRITICAL 9.2

DescriptionCVE.org

Mongoid contains an unsafe reflection weakness in the query path used for embedded documents. An application that passes an externally supplied field name to certain in-memory query methods may allow an unauthenticated party to obtain unintended disclosure of stored document data and to permanently remove stored records.

AnalysisAI

Data disclosure and permanent record deletion in Mongoid can be triggered by an unauthenticated remote attacker when an application passes an externally supplied field name to certain in-memory query methods for embedded documents, exploiting an unsafe reflection weakness (CWE-470). The vendor CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.2 reflects the network vector and high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability, though the attack requires a developer-dependent data flow (AT:P) where untrusted input reaches a field name parameter. …

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires an application built on Mongoid that passes an externally/user-supplied field name into the affected in-memory query methods for embedded documents - this untrusted-input-to-field-name data flow is the explicit prerequisite (reflected as AT:P in the CVSS 4.0 vector). … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The vendor CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.2 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:P/PR:N/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H) rates this Critical, driven by an unauthenticated network vector and high impact across confidentiality, integrity, and availability (data disclosure plus permanent record removal). … 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 has been identified in the available data; monitor the MongoDB Jira issue MONGOID-5973 for a fix. … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours: inventory all applications using Mongoid (affected and fixed versions remain unconfirmed) and identify any code paths that pass externally supplied field names to in-memory query methods for embedded documents; apply strict allowlist validation or reject untrusted field names; enable logging and monitoring for anomalous data access or deletion; and restrict network access to MongoDB instances. …
