CVE-2026-9749

HIGHCVSS 7.1/10EPSS 0.27%

Last modified

CVE-2026-9749 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.1/10 on the CVSS scale. This issue can occur when running an aggregation pipeline that uses the internal $exchange stage configured with key-range partitioning and order-preserving delivery. If a single key range produces enough documents to fill its exchange buffer (that is, many results are routed to the same consumer), the server reaches the code path where a full per-consumer buffer is detected but the internal "high watermark" for that key range is not updated as intended.. EPSS estimates a 0.27% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
