CVE-2026-81529 — MongoDB C# Driver

What is CVE-2026-81529?

Improper neutralization of delimiters in connection-URL construction allows connection-option injection in the MongoDB C# Driver. When an application passes untrusted text into the driver's connection-URL builder and round-trips the builder back into a client configuration, the untrusted text is serialized without neutralizing the URL/option delimiters and is then re-parsed as authoritative connection options. A low-privileged user of such an application can thereby introduce or suppress security-relevant connection settings.

The record classifies CVE-2026-81529 under weakness class CWE-88. Its CVSS v3 base vector states that the flaw is reachable remotely over the network, needs low-privilege credentials, needs no user interaction, and has high impact on confidentiality. 1 affected-product entry is recorded, across 1 vendor, listed below. The identifier was first published 39 days ago.
