CVE-2026-118510: MongoDB Laravel integration library type-handling flaw in relation queries

CVE-2026-118510 · Severity: high · CVSS 8.8 · Published 2026-10-28

Laravel's MongoDB integration library contains a flaw in how it builds queries to check relationships between database records. The bug causes type mismatches that allow users to bypass access control checks designed to prevent them from viewing or modifying certain documents. An attacker with basic privileges can silently read, modify, or delete documents they should not have access to, with no error messages to alert administrators.

How to fix

Fixed in: 5.12.0

Technical details

A type-handling flaw in relationship query building causes checks for absent related records to use identifiers with incorrect data types, allowing the check to be bypassed. This occurs in HasOneThrough and HasManyThrough relation queries when an application relies on such checks for access control. An attacker with basic privileges can exploit this to access or modify documents the check was intended to withhold, and the failure produces no error, making it silent and difficult to detect.
