CVE-2026-81521
Published:August 27, 2026
Updated:September 24, 2026
The MongoDB Go Driver's client-level bulk write operation may accept a caller-supplied database name containing a reserved separator character without escaping it before the name is used to build the target namespace for the operation. An application that passes untrusted input as a database name could therefore have the write directed at a database and collection other than the ones it intended. Only the Client.BulkWrite API is affected.
