CVE-2026-13057Authorization Bypass via Client-Supplied $search.mergingPipeline Leaks Unauthorized Collection Data Through $$SEARCH_META

Updated under an hour ago ()

Does this affect you?

It affects MongoDB Server and 1 other product. Add what you run to find out whether that includes you.

No exploitation reported and no EPSS estimate yet.

An issue in the server’s Atlas Search integration allows an authenticated user to bypass per-user access controls. In sharded topologies, the $search and $searchMeta aggregation stages use internal routing that is normally populated only by the trusted router during sharded search planning. Due to insufficient input validation, an authenticated client can supply these fields directly.
