mongo-go-driver has Heap Out-of-Bounds Read in GSSAPI Error Handling

CVE-2026-2303 / GHSA-cp6g-7hqx-qxhp

More information

Details

The mongo-go-driver repository contains CGo bindings for GSSAPI (Kerberos) authentication on Linux and macOS. The C wrapper implementation contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability due to incorrect assumptions about string termination in the GSSAPI standard. Since GSSAPI buffers are not guaranteed to be null-terminated or have extra padding, this results in reading one byte past the allocated heap buffer.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 6.9 / 10 (Medium)
  • Vector String: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:P/VC:N/VI:H/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N

Compare Source

The MongoDB Go Driver Team is pleased to release version 1.17.4 of the official MongoDB Go Driver.

Release Notes

This release resolves two bugs in the Go Driver: it removes a buggy and unnecessary connection liveness check that could run unexpectedly or fail intermittently when maxIdleTimeMS was set, and it fixes an issue where regular expressions were marshaled to invalid JSON due to improper character escaping, ensuring all generated JSON is now valid.

v1.17.2: MongoDB Go Driver 1.17.2

Compare Source

The MongoDB Go Driver Team is pleased to release version 1.17.2 of the official MongoDB Go driver.

Release Notes

This release addresses several issues and tasks to improve the functionality of the Go Driver. It includes a fix for a bug in the DefaultValueDecoders.ValueUnmarshalerDecodeValue to avoid inappropriately instantiating a pointer field decoded from null data if the user defined an UnmarshalBSONValue. Additionally, the release resolves a goroutine and memory leak issue found in the Zstandard (zstd) network compression decoding process.

Furthermore, the release includes a task to restore the ReadCompressedCompressedMessage() function to the wiremessage API. This function was previously removed under task GODRIVER-3303 with the aim of preventing out-of-bounds runtime errors, as it was identified as complicit in such issues and was not needed by the driver itself. However, it has been identified as a convenient utility for some users of the Go Driver.

v1.17.0: MongoDB Go Driver 1.17.0

Compare Source

The MongoDB Go Driver Team is pleased to release version 1.17.0 of the official MongoDB Go driver.

Release Notes

This release adds support for client authentication using OpenID Connect (MONGODB-OIDC), and for the Queryable Encryption Range Protocol. The driver now supports MongoDB 8.0. Additionally, IndexView has been extended to include methods for dropping indexes by key (i.e. DropOneWithKey and DropWithKey).

[!NOTE]

This is the last planned minor release in the 1.x series. Future driver versions will be in the 2.x series. The v1.17.x will still receive security and bug fixes for a year.

Queryable Encryption Range Protocol

Added range protocol support for Queryable Encryption.

MONGODB-OIDC

Added support OpenID Connect (OIDC) authentication for workload identities. A workload identity is an identity you assign to a software workload, such as an application, service, script, or container, to authenticate and access other services and resources.

See the documentation for more details.
