Description

A vulnerability was discovered in MongoDB Server where the server-side MozJS scripting engine unconditionally registered a module loading hook that enables JavaScript calls to read arbitrary files from the host filesystem using the mongod process's privileges. An authenticated user could exploit this through crafted aggregation pipeline commands to read sensitive files accessible to the MongoDB server process.

CVE-2026-64829
Question2Answer through 1.8.8 contains a session invalidation vulnerability that allows attackers with a previously obtained remember-me cookie to retain authenticated access by exploiting the forgot-password reset flow's failure to clear the sessioncode field in qa-include/app/users-edit.php. While the normal password-change flow in qa-include/pages/account.php explicitly clears the sessioncode to invalidate persistent qa_session cookies, the forgot-password handler qa_finish_reset_user() omits this step, allowing any valid persistent cookie issued before the reset to continue authenticating the account after the password reset completes.

CVE-2026-13077
A missing bounds check in the BSON CodeWScope element accessors allows an attacker to trigger an out-of-bounds heap read via a crafted aggregation pipeline. The vulnerability can be exploited by an authenticated user by generating a malformed BSONColumn data containing a CodeWScope element, bypassing wire-level BSON validation. When the forged element is decompressed, the unchecked size value is used in pointer arithmetic, causing either a server crash or disclosure of adjacent heap memory contents.

CVE-2026-13072
When compute mode is enabled on a standalone mongod instance, insufficient validation of externally sourced BSON data during aggregation pipeline processing can result in memory corruption, potentially leading to process termination or other unintended behavior. This configuration is non-default and requires explicit enablement at startup.

CVE-2026-13059
An authenticated user with low privileges may be able to perform unauthorized reads and writes on data protected by role-based query-level access controls, due to insufficient validation of certain client-supplied command parameters. The issue affects find, update, delete, and aggregate commands in non-apiStrict configurations.
