MongoDB PHP Client Library Namespace Manipulation in Vendor Implementation

CVE-2026-81525

What is CVE-2026-81525?

The MongoDB PHP Client Library is susceptible to namespace manipulation, where insufficient sanitization of user-supplied namespace identifiers may lead to unintended database operations. Applications that incorporate untrusted text can potentially redirect operations to different storage locations, posing a significant risk to data integrity and security. Proper validation and sanitization measures should be implemented to mitigate this vulnerability.
