  - An out-of-bounds read in SCRAM authentication response parsing in the MongoDB C Driver can read one byte
    beyond a fixed-size buffer when processing a malformed server-final message. A server or network
    intermediary able to provide this message before server-signature verification can cause the application
    using the driver to terminate. The extra byte is not returned through the protocol. (CVE-2026-106428)
