Technical details
An uncontrolled recursion weakness in the BSON decoding logic allows an unauthenticated attacker to supply crafted binary BSON data that exhausts the process stack, leading to segmentation faults and PHP process termination. The attack requires network access to send BSON documents to an application using the driver but no authentication. The condition occurs below the PHP layer and cannot be intercepted by application-level error handling.
Affected products
- MongoDB PHP driver before 1.21.12, 2.0.x before 2.1.12, 2.2.x before 2.5.5
