EUVD-2026-72918

No EUVD known-exploited evidence

An uncontrolled resource consumption weakness exists in the request-handling path of the MongoDB sharded-cluster router process. A client that has network access to a router port and has not authenticated can supply connection-monitoring parameters that cause the server to expend CPU resources without any rate limiting, degrading or denying service to legitimate clients. No authentication, elevated privileges, or user interaction is required. Only availability is affected; data confidentiality and integrity are not impacted.

01

What, why and how

An uncontrolled resource consumption weakness exists in the request-handling path of the MongoDB sharded-cluster router process. A client that has network access to a router port and has not authenticated can supply connection-monitoring parameters that cause the server to expend CPU resources without any rate limiting, degrading or denying service to legitimate clients.

What

An uncontrolled resource consumption weakness exists in the request-handling path of the MongoDB sharded-cluster router process. A client that has network access to a router port and has not authenticated can supply connection-monitoring parameters that cause the server to expend CPU resources without any rate limiting, degrading or denying service to legitimate clients. No authentication, elevated privileges, or user interaction is required. Only availability is affected; data confidentiality and integrity are not impacted.

Why

The product allocates a reusable resource or group of resources on behalf of an actor without imposing any intended restrictions on the size or number of resources that can be allocated.

How

An attacker operating through a network path may attempt exploitation without authentication or user interaction. If successful, the issue may gain additional privileges.

Exploit reality and attack path

CVSS severity, EPSS forecast probability, public exploit material and CISA-confirmed exploitation are separate signals.

Observed exploitation
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
No confirmed evidence

No CISA KEV match was present at the last successful refresh. This means no confirmation from that source, not proof of no exploitation.

Public PoC / exploit material
?Confirmed exploitation and public exploit material are separate signals. Attacks can occur without public proof-of-concept or exploit code.
None recorded

No exploit-tagged reference or CISA SSVC proof-of-concept state is currently recorded. Research may still exist outside the structured feeds.

Likely attack path
a network path → Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling → gain additional privileges
Attack surface
Network
Privileges required
None: unauthenticated exploitation is possible
User interaction

Low: no specialised conditions are recorded
Security boundary

Weakness
?CWE means Common Weakness Enumeration: a standard category for the underlying weakness.
CWE-770

CWE-770: Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling. The product allocates a reusable resource or group of resources on behalf of an actor without imposing any intended restrictions on the size or number of resources that can be allocated.
