MongoDB 5.0.x < 5.0.27 / 6.0.x < 6.0.16 / 7.0.x < 7.0.12 / 7.3.x < 7.3.3 (SERVER-93211)

high Nessus Plugin ID 205616

Synopsis

The remote host is missing a security update.

Description

The version of MongoDB installed on the remote host is prior to 5.0.27, 6.0.16, 7.0.12, or 7.3.3. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SERVER-93211 advisory.

- 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 (CVE-2024-7553)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

Solution

Upgrade to MongoDB version 5.0.27 / 6.0.16 / 7.0.12 / 7.3.3 or later.
