> CERT-FR advisory lists five CVEs across MongoDB, Compass, mongo-c-driver, mongo-php-driver and pymongo enabling data integrity compromise and security policy bypass.

CERT-FR published an advisory summarizing five vulnerabilities affecting multiple MongoDB ecosystem components: MongoDB server (versions 2.2.x-2.5.x prior to 2.5.3, 2.x prior to 2.1.10, and prior to 1.21.10), MongoDB-extension, Compass (prior to 1.49.12), mongo-c-driver (prior to 1.30.12 and prior to 2.5.5), and pymongo (prior to 4.18.2). The vulnerabilities can allow an attacker to compromise data integrity, bypass security policy controls, or trigger an unspecified security issue as characterized by the vendor.

No exploitation in the wild is indicated, and no technical exploitation details are provided in the advisory. Defenders operating any of the listed MongoDB components should consult the referenced vendor security bulletins and GitHub Security Advisories (GHSA-cmvj-vxvq-rh2c, GHSA-frjf-h5jg-4v46, GHSA-qx36-8mw2-4r3x, GHSA-v4x9-3549-crwv, GHSA-vp6j-j7w5-5xjj) to identify affected packages precisely and apply the corresponding patched versions.

Given the range of affected components—spanning the database server, GUI client, C driver, PHP driver, and Python driver—organizations using MongoDB in any capacity should inventory their deployed driver and tooling versions and prioritize patching, particularly for internet-facing or multi-tenant environments where data integrity guarantees are relied upon.
