CVE-2026-13063
Last modified
CVE-2026-13063 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.3/10 on the CVSS scale. An authenticated user with standard read/write privileges can cause the mongod process to terminate due to an out-of-memory condition by sending a crafted aggregation command. MongoDB's libmongocrypt library insufficiently validates payload-supplied values, which can result in an excessively large memory allocation.. EPSS estimates a 0.36% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
