MongoDB Server: denial of service
Fix: upgrade to 8.3.8 or later (3 fixed versions below)
An issue in MongoDB Server's geospatial validation could allow an authenticated user with write privileges to cause an internal reference to be used after the underlying memory has been freed, through concurrent operations against a collection using a certain type of validator. This could result in a server crash, leading to a denial of service.
