CVE-2026-9100
Last modified
CVE-2026-9100 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 6/10 on the CVSS scale. The MongoDB C Driver's legacy GridFS API accepts malformed file metadata from the database without adequate validation. Crafted documents in a GridFS collection may cause any application that reads those files via the legacy API to either crash (via a division-by-zero) or silently leak process memory contents (via an out-of-bounds read).. EPSS estimates a 0.28% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
