Doc Text:
A flaw was found in libmongocrypt. An integer underflow in the Key Management Service (KMS) endpoint-parsing logic can cause a memory allocation failure when processing a malformed endpoint. An authenticated user can trigger this flaw by modifying a key document in the key vault collection or by supplying an endpoint with an unexpected colon character during key creation. Exploitation causes the application process to terminate unexpectedly, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).

Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-10-08 19:12:34 UTC
An integer underflow in the KMS endpoint-parsing logic of MongoDB libmongocrypt can cause an allocation failure that terminates the application process. This can occur when an authenticated user modifies a key document in the key vault collection, or when an application accepts a KMS endpoint containing a colon after its path or query during key creation. The issue does not access memory outside its allocated bounds.
