Summary

Query operations involving deeply nested $jsonSchema constructs can cause excessive CPU consumption in affected MongoDB deployments, leading to resource exhaustion. The resulting CPU-bound operation cannot be interrupted through standard administrative controls.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can exhaust MongoDB server resources, causing service unavailability for all users. The inability to interrupt the operation hinders response to the attack.

Recommendation

Update MongoDB to a patched version. Restrict access to queries using $jsonSchema for untrusted users.
