High · 8.1 CVE-2026-93393 EUVD-2026-82435GHSA-x65h-hw7w-mq6w

Heap overflow via oversized decrypted TLS record sequence in Windows Secure Channel stream

Published Sep 17, 2026 · Updated Sep 18, 2026 · Assigned by mongodb

Description

A heap-based buffer overflow exists in the TLS transport layer of the MongoDB C Driver when built with the Windows platform TLS backend. A remote endpoint that the client connects to can cause the driver to write uncontrolled data outside the bounds of a heap allocation while processing incoming encrypted traffic after the TLS handshake completes. No authentication or user interaction is required, because the affected processing occurs before any application-level authentication completes. Triggering this issue may lead to memory corruption in the client process, disclosure of adjacent heap memory, or termination of the process.
