Summary

A security issue in the MongoDB Server's storage engine integration layer allows an authenticated user with collection creation privileges to cause a persistent denial of service. Insufficient validation of user-supplied storage configuration options permits values that, once persisted to durable metadata, trigger a fatal assertion failure when the metadata is subsequently read by diagnostic operations. The corrupted metadata persists across server restarts and is replicated to other cluster members, requiring manual operator intervention to restore service.

Risk Assessment

Risk of persistent denial of service in MongoDB cluster, with potential propagation to other nodes, requiring manual intervention and potentially causing prolonged unavailability.

Recommendation

Apply MongoDB security patches, restrict collection creation privileges for untrusted users, and monitor storage configurations for unusual values.
