and 8.1 prior to 8.1.2. It is, therefore, affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the SERVER-99616 advisory.

  - An authorized user can cause a crash in the MongoDB Server through a specially crafted $group query. This 
    vulnerability is related to the incorrect handling of certain accumulator functions when additional 
    parameters are specified within the $group operation. This vulnerability could lead to denial of service 
    if triggered repeatedly. This issue affects MongoDB Server v6.0 versions prior to 6.0.25, MongoDB Server 
    v7.0 versions prior to 7.0.22, MongoDB Server v8.0 versions prior to 8.0.12 and MongoDB Server v8.1 
    versions prior to 8.1.2. (CVE-2025-10061)

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