    Version        : 1.17.6-1+deb11u1
    CVE ID         : CVE-2021-32050 CVE-2023-0437 CVE-2024-6381 CVE-2024-6383
                     CVE-2025-0755

    Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in the MongoDB C Driver.

    CVE-2021-32050

        Some MongoDB Drivers may erroneously publish events containing
        authentication-related data to a command listener configured by an
        application. The published events may contain security-sensitive
        data when specific authentication-related commands are executed.
        Without due care, an application may inadvertently expose this
        sensitive information, e.g., by writing it to a log file. This issue
        only arises if an application enables the command listener feature
        (this is not enabled by default).

    CVE-2023-0437

        When calling bson_utf8_validate on some inputs a loop with an exit
        condition that cannot be reached may occur, i.e. an infinite loop.

    CVE-2024-6381

        The bson_strfreev function in the MongoDB C driver library may be
        susceptible to an integer overflow where the function will try to
        free memory at a negative offset. This may result in memory
        corruption.

    CVE-2024-6383

        The bson_string_append function in MongoDB C Driver may be
        vulnerable to a buffer overflow where the function might attempt to
        allocate too small of buffer and may lead to memory corruption of
        neighbouring heap memory.

    CVE-2025-0755

        The various bson_append functions in the MongoDB C driver library
        may be susceptible to buffer overflow when performing operations
        that could result in a final BSON document which exceeds the maximum
        allowable size (INT32_MAX), resulting in a segmentation fault and
        possible application crash.

    For Debian 11 bullseye, these problems have been fixed in version
    1.17.6-1+deb11u1.

    We recommend that you upgrade your mongo-c-driver packages.
