CVE-2021-20331 Metadata Quick Info

CVE Published: 13/05/2021 | CVE Updated: 16/09/2024 | CVE Year: 2021
Source: mongodb | Vendor: MongoDB Inc. | Product: MongoDB C# Driver
Status : PUBLISHED

CVE-2021-20331 Description

Specific versions of the MongoDB C# Driver may erroneously publish events containing authentication-related data to a command listener configured by an application. The published events may contain security-sensitive data when commands such as "saslStart", "saslContinue", "isMaster", "createUser", and "updateUser" are executed. Without due care, an application may inadvertently expose this authenticated-related information, e.g., by writing it to a log file. This issue only arises if an application enables the command listener feature (this is not enabled by default). This issue affects the MongoDB C# Driver v2.12 versions prior to and including 2.12.1.
