ID: 201611-13
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
Synopsis
========
A vulnerability in MongoDB can lead to a Denial of Service condition.
Background
==========
MongoDB (from “humongous”) is a scalable, high-performance, open
source, schema-free, document-oriented database.
Affected packages
=================
——————————————————————-
Package / Vulnerable / Unaffected
——————————————————————-
1 dev-db/mongodb < 2.4.13 >= 2.4.13
Description
===========
MongoDB’s ‘mongod’ server fails to validate some cases of malformed
BSON.
Impact
======
A remote attacker could send a specially crafted BSON request possibly
resulting in a Denial of Service condition.
Workaround
==========
There is no known workaround at this time.
Resolution
==========
All MongoDB users should upgrade to the latest version:
# emerge –sync
# emerge –ask –oneshot –verbose “>=dev-db/mongodb-2.4.13”
