CVE-2026-106435

Ein Angreifer kann mehrere Schwachstellen in verschiedenen MongoDB Treibern ausnutzen, um einen Denial of Service Angriff durchzuführen und um Daten zu manipulieren.

### Impact The C extension's BSON decoder scans a Regex element's pattern and flags strings with strlen before checking the document's remaining length, so a crafted truncated Regex element can read past the end of the caller's buffer. bson.decode and bson.decode_all accept mmap and array buffers, which carry no NUL sentinel; the read can cross into unmapped memory and kill the process with an uncatchable SIGSEGV. Any application decoding untrusted BSON from such buffers is affected — impact is availability only, since the out-of-bounds bytes are never returned as content. NUL-terminated buffers (bytes, bytearray) raise `InvalidBSON` at worst; the driver's own transport and pure-Python installs are not affected. All releases through 4.18.2 are affected when the C extension is loaded. ### Patches Fixed in PyMongo 4.18.3. Malformed Regex elements now raise InvalidBSON on every accepted buffer type; valid documents decode unchanged. ### Workarounds Decode untrusted BSON only from NUL-terminated buffers — bytes or bytearray — and copy mmap input first, e.g. bytes(mm[:size]).
