CVE-2026-114644 is a medium-severity flaw (CVSS 5.9) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
The MongoDB C# Driver's BSON library contains an uncontrolled resource consumption weakness in its deserialization handling of one BSON value type. An application that deserializes untrusted content with the library retains data derived from that content for the lifetime of the process, with no limit on how much accumulates. An unauthenticated remote party who can cause such content to be deserialized can drive unbounded memory growth, exhausting
