A weakness in the client-side encryption configuration surface of the MongoDB C# Driver causes sensitive key-management credential material supplied by the application to be reproduced verbatim in the driver's human-readable diagnostic representation of its client settings, instead of being masked as other secret fields are. A party able to read the application's logs, diagnostic output, or a process memory dump may thereby recover the plaintext credentials and use them to decrypt protected field data.

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in verschiedenen MongoDB Clients ausnutzen, um Sicherheitsvorkehrungen zu umgehen, vertrauliche Informationen offenzulegen, Daten zu manipulieren oder Denial-of-Service-Zustände herbeizuführen.
