Description
A data-query-logic neutralization weakness in the update-statement construction component of the MongoDB C# Driver can cause application-supplied values to be interpreted as query/update logic rather than as literal data. An application user who can influence the content of values that the application passes into the affected builder surface, without any special privilege beyond ordinary read-write application access, may cause stored data to be modified or removed in ways the application never intended. The result is unauthorized integrity impact on the affected application data; there is no direct loss of confidentiality or availability of the database service.

AI Analysis

Impact

A data‑query‑logic neutralization weakness in the update‑statement construction component of the MongoDB C# Driver allows application supplied values to be interpreted as query or update logic instead of literal data. This flaw enables an attacker who controls input that reaches the driver’s update builder to alter or delete content in the database, granting unauthorized integrity impact on application data. The attacker does not require elevated privileges; ordinary read‑write application access suffices. No confidentiality or availability loss is reported.

Affected Systems

The vulnerability affects the MongoDB C# Driver used in .NET applications. No specific driver versions are listed as affected, but references point to the need for an update; upgrading to the latest release (e.g., 3.13.0 or later) is recommended.

Risk and Exploitability

The flaw carries a CVSS score of 7.1, indicating moderate to high risk. EPSS is not available, and the issue is not listed in CISA KEV. Attackers with routine application‑level access can inject harmful update expressions via the builder, potentially modifying or deleting data. Because the exploitation path is tied to ordinary user input, the likelihood of abuse remains significant where input validation is weak.

Remediation

No solution or workaround provided in the CVE record.

OpenCVE Recommended Actions

  • Upgrade to the latest MongoDB C# Driver version that contains the fix (e.g., 3.13.0 or newer).
  • Review all code that constructs update statements and remove direct usage of unvalidated user input; use explicit field mappings or parameterized update definitions.
  • Apply input validation and sanitization to every value forwarded to the UpdateDefinition builder to ensure only literal data is accepted.
