FreeBSD : MongoDB -- crash due to improper validation of explain command (350b3389-107f-11f0-8195-b42e991fc52e)

medium Nessus Plugin ID 233852

Synopsis

The remote FreeBSD host is missing one or more security-related updates.

Description

The version of FreeBSD installed on the remote host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the 350b3389-107f-11f0-8195-b42e991fc52e advisory.

[email protected] reports:
When run on commands with certain arguments set, explain may fail to validate these arguments before using them. This can lead to crashes in router servers. This affects MongoDB Server v5.0 prior to 5.0.31, MongoDB Server v6.0 prior to 6.0.20, MongoDB Server v7.0 prior to 7.0.16 and MongoDB Server v8.0 prior to 8.0.4

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the FreeBSD security advisory.

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

Solution

Update the affected packages.
