CVE-2026-9752
Last modified
CVE-2026-9752 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.1/10 on the CVSS scale. An authorized user could trigger a server crash by running a query with a 2dsphere index on a field that stores a GeoJSON GeometryCollection containing a Polygon with a strict-winding CRS. Strict-winding polygons are intentionally unsupported for indexing, but the guard that rejects them does not inspect members of a GeometryCollection, allowing the unsafe path to be reached which ends with an ensuing null-pointer dereference.. EPSS estimates a 0.27% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
