to 8.3.11. It is, therefore, affected by a memory corruption vulnerability:

  - A race condition in the document value layer of MongoDB Server can allow concurrent server threads to
    operate on the same internal memory without synchronization, leading to memory corruption. An authenticated
    user with standard database privileges may potentially terminate the server and corrupt process memory.
    (CVE-2026-89099)

Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
