Mongodb: >> C Driver >> 1.19.0 Security Vulnerabilities
Improper neutralization of special elements in data query logic in the GridFS component of the MongoDB C Driver can cause a caller-supplied structured file identifier to be interpreted as a query condition rather than as a literal identifier. An authenticated user who can influence the identifier passed by an affected application may obtain stored file content beyond the intended target or cause all GridFS file chunks in the affected bucket to be removed, rendering stored file content unreadable.

A size check in the client-side authentication path of the MongoDB C Driver can wrap around, so an unusually large user-name value is accepted and copied past the end of a small buffer. A party able to set the driver's connection settings may cause the application that embeds the driver to terminate unexpectedly. Reaching this code requires a build in which the optional external SASL authentication backend is present and a connection configured to use it.

The bson_validate function may return early on specific inputs and incorrectly report success. This behavior could result in skipping validation for BSON data, allowing malformed or invalid UTF-8 sequences to bypass validation and be processed incorrectly. The issue may affect applications that rely on these functions to validate untrusted BSON data before further processing. This issue affects MongoDB C Driver versions prior to 1.30.5, MongoDB C Driver version 2.0.0 and MongoDB C Driver version 2.0.1

Incorrect validation of files loaded from a local untrusted directory may allow local privilege escalation if the underlying operating systems is Windows. This may result in the application executing arbitrary behaviour determined by the contents of untrusted files. This issue affects MongoDB Server v5.0 versions prior to 5.0.27, MongoDB Server v6.0 versions prior to 6.0.16, MongoDB Server v7.0 versions prior to 7.0.12, MongoDB Server v7.3 versions prior 7.3.3, MongoDB C Driver versions prior to 1.26.2 and MongoDB PHP Driver versions prior to 1.18.1.
Required Configuration:
Only environments with Windows as the underlying operating system is affected by this issue
