An unauthenticated attacker may potentially read data from the MongoDB server's uninitialized heap memory, which could lead to the leakage of sensitive information.

Recommendation

Update MongoDB Server to the latest version within the 7.0.28, 8.0.17, 8.2.3, 6.0.27, 5.0.32, 4.4.30 branches or newer, and for older branches (4.2, 4.0, 3.6) plan a migration to a supported version.
