An authenticated user with low privileges may be able to perform unauthorized reads and writes on data protected by role-based query-level access… (CVE-2026-13059)
An authenticated user with low privileges may exploit insufficient validation of client-supplied command parameters to perform unauthorized reads and writes on data protected by role-based query-level access controls. This vulnerability affects the find, update, delete, and aggregate commands when used in non-apiStrict configurations. The issue arises from improper enforcement of access controls, potentially allowing privilege escalation within the affected system.
AI Analysis
Technical Summary
CVE-2026-13059 describes a vulnerability where an authenticated user with limited privileges can bypass role-based query-level access controls due to insufficient validation of certain client-supplied command parameters. This flaw impacts the find, update, delete, and aggregate database commands in configurations that do not enforce apiStrict mode, enabling unauthorized data access and modification. The vulnerability is classified under CWE-807 (Improper Restriction of Excessive Authentication Attempts or Authorization). No patch or remediation details are provided in the available data.
Potential Impact
The vulnerability allows low-privileged authenticated users to read and write data they should not have access to, violating role-based access controls. This could lead to unauthorized data disclosure and modification, potentially compromising data integrity and confidentiality within the affected system.
Mitigation Recommendations
Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, consider enabling apiStrict mode if applicable, as the vulnerability affects non-apiStrict configurations. Monitor vendor communications for updates on patches or official mitigations.
