MongoDB Server: improper authorization
Low2.3CVE-2026-13068 · Published Jul 22, 2026 · updated Aug 5, 2026
An authenticated user holding cursor termination privileges on one database may incorrectly be permitted to terminate active cursors on a separate database, disrupting ongoing query operations for other users. The behavior stems from an authorization check that does not correctly scope privileges to the appropriate namespace.
