Improper Input Validation in Automattic Mongoose

CVE-2019-17426 / GHSA-8687-vv9j-hgph

More information

Details

Automattic Mongoose through 5.7.4 allows attackers to bypass access control (in some applications) because any query object with a _bsontype attribute is ignored. For example, adding "_bsontype":"a" can sometimes interfere with a query filter. NOTE: this CVE is about Mongoose's failure to work around this _bsontype special case that exists in older versions of the bson parser (aka the mongodb/js-bson project).

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 9.1 / 10 (Critical)

automattic/mongoose vulnerable to Prototype pollution via Schema.path

CVE-2022-2564 / GHSA-f825-f98c-gj3g

More information

Details

Mongoose is a MongoDB object modeling tool designed to work in an asynchronous environment. Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The Schema.path() function is vulnerable to prototype pollution when setting the schema object. This vulnerability allows modification of the Object prototype and could be manipulated into a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 7.0 / 10 (High)
  • Vector String: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:L/I:L/A:H

CVE-2023-3696 / GHSA-9m93-w8w6-76hh

More information

Details

Prototype Pollution in GitHub repository automattic/mongoose prior to 7.3.3, 6.11.3, and 5.13.20.

Mongoose Vulnerable to Prototype Pollution in Schema Object

CVE-2022-24304 / GHSA-h8hf-x3f4-xwgp

More information

Details

Description

Mongoose is a MongoDB object modeling tool designed to work in an asynchronous environment.

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Prototype Pollution. The Schema.path() function is vulnerable to prototype pollution when setting the schema object. This vulnerability allows modification of the Object prototype and could be manipulated into a Denial of Service (DoS) attack.

Proof of Concept
// poc.js
const mongoose = require('mongoose');
const schema = new mongoose.Schema();

malicious_payload = '__proto__.toString'

schema.path(malicious_payload, [String])

x = {}
console.log(x.toString()) // crashed (Denial of service (DoS) attack)
Impact

This vulnerability can be manipulated to exploit other types of attacks, such as Denial of service (DoS), Remote Code Execution, or Property Injection.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 9.8 / 10 (Critical)

Mongoose search injection vulnerability

CVE-2025-23061 / GHSA-vg7j-7cwx-8wgw

More information

Details

Mongoose versions prior to 8.9.5, 7.8.4, and 6.13.6 are vulnerable to improper use of the $where operator. This vulnerability arises from the ability of the $where clause to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in MongoDB queries, potentially leading to code injection attacks and unauthorized access or manipulation of database data.

NOTE: this issue exists because of an incomplete fix for CVE-2024-53900.

Severity

  • CVSS Score: 9.0 / 10 (Critical)
  • Vector String: CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:H

More information

Details

Mongoose versions prior to 8.8.3, 7.8.3, 6.13.5, and 5.13.23 are vulnerable to improper use of the $where operator. This vulnerability arises from the ability of the $where clause to execute arbitrary JavaScript code in MongoDB queries, potentially leading to code injection attacks and unauthorized access or manipulation of database data.

Mongoose's Improper Sanitization of $nor in sanitizeFilter May Allow NoSQL Injection

CVE-2026-42334 / GHSA-wpg9-53fq-2r8h

More information

Details

Impact

This vulnerability allows bypassing Mongoose’s sanitizeFilter query sanitization mechanism via the $nor operator.

When sanitizeFilter is enabled, Mongoose wraps query operators in $eq to neutralize them. However, prior to the fix, $nor was not included in the set of logical operators that are recursively sanitized. Because $nor accepts an array (like $and and $or), and arrays do not trigger hasDollarKeys(), malicious operators such as $ne, $gt, or $regex could be injected inside a $nor clause without being sanitized.

This may lead to:

  • Authentication bypass
  • Unauthorized data access
  • Data exfiltration

Affected users:

Applications that:

  • Explicitly enable sanitizeFilter
  • Pass unsanitized user-controlled input directly into query methods (e.g., Model.findOne(req.body)) and rely on sanitizeFilter to strip out query selectors

Applications that validate input schemas, whitelist fields, or avoid passing raw request bodies into queries are not affected. For example, Model.findOne({ user: req.body.user, pwd: req.body.pwd }) is not affected.

Patches

Patches have been released for all supported Mongoose release lines:

  • ^6.13.9
  • ^7.8.9
  • ^8.22.1
  • ^9.1.6
Workarounds

Delete $nor keys, use an additional schema validation library, or write middleware to strip out $nor from query filters.
