"The version of MongoDB Compass installed on the remote host is 1.44.0 prior to 1.49.12. It is, therefore, affected by a
vulnerability:
- MongoDB Compass can interpolate a database name without escaping into the initial input of its embedded
MongoDB shell when a user opens the shell from that database's view. A user with privileges to create
databases on a server that a Compass user connects to may, under specific conditions, have content evaluated
as shell input within the Compass process, with that process's privileges. This requires the Compass user to
open the shell for the affected database. (CVE-2026-96750)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
