### Impact Improper neutralization of special elements in data query logic in...
High8.4CVE-2026-88022 · Published Sep 11, 2026
### Impact Improper neutralization of special elements in data query logic in the MongoDB integration for Laravel can cause an array supplied to an explicit equality filter to be interpreted as a query condition rather than as a literal value. This affects the three-argument `where` method when the operator is `=` or `eq`, as well as the `find` and `delete` methods that use that code path. An attacker who can cause an affected application to supply an operator-shaped array to one of these APIs may obtain a document other than the intended target or delete documents beyond the intended target. ### Patches 5.11.0 ### Workarounds Validate arguments. ### References https://jira.mongodb.org/browse/PHPLARA-260
