"The version of MongoDB installed on the remote host is 6.0 prior to 6.0.23, 7.0 prior to 7.0.20 and 8.0 prior to
8.0.9. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SERVER-106753 advisory.
- MongoDB Server's mongos component can become unresponsive to new connections due to incorrect handling of
incomplete data. This affects MongoDB when configured with load balancer support. This issue affects
MongoDB Server v6.0 prior to 6.0.23, MongoDB Server v7.0 prior to 7.0.20 and MongoDB Server v8.0 prior to
8.0.9 Required Configuration: This affects MongoDB sharded clusters when configured with load balancer
support for mongos using HAProxy on specified ports. (CVE-2025-6714)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
