AI-suggested
If you cannot patch yet, users should avoid using vulnerable versions prior to 3.40.0 or implement strict input validation and operator filtering on MongoDB queries to prevent injection.
Description
Budibase before 3.40.0 contains a NoSQL injection vulnerability in the MongoDB datasource integration where user-supplied parameters are enriched with handlebars using noEscaping: true and parsed without operator filtering. Attackers can inject MongoDB operators through query parameters to bypass per-user access controls, read arbitrary documents, execute JavaScript via $where operators, or modify collections through update and delete operations.
