Description Pedro Sampaio 2020-11-23 20:28:51 UTC

A user authorized to perform database queries may trigger a read overrun and access arbitrary memory by issuing specially crafted queries. This issue affects: MongoDB Inc. MongoDB Server v4.5 versions prior to 4.5.1; v4.4 versions prior to 4.4.1; v4.2 versions prior to 4.2.9; v4.0 versions prior to 4.0.20; v3.6 versions prior to 3.6.20.

Upstream bug:

https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/SERVER-49404

Affects: epel-all [bug 1900843]

Comment 2 Riccardo Schirone 2020-11-30 17:07:36 UTC

Upstream patch:
https://github.com/mongodb/mongo/commit/1772b9a0393b55e6a280a35e8f0a1f75c014f301

Comment 3 Riccardo Schirone 2020-11-30 17:12:28 UTC

The flaw is in the ExpressionArrayToObject class. The version of mongodb as shipped in RHUI-3 does not contain that class, thus it is not affected by this flaw.

Comment 4 Yadnyawalk Tale 2020-11-30 17:35:21 UTC

Red Hat Satellite 6.6 onward does not ship the MongoDB package; however, the product consumes MongoDB from Red Hat Software Collections (RHSCL) for Red Hat Enterprise Linux. Satellite has no plans to update to a version of MongoDB released with a Server Side Public License (SSPL) which includes all versions released after October 16, 2018.
