Summary
The MongoDB C Driver, specifically its GridFS file download function (mongoc_gridfs_bucket_download_to_stream), is affected. An attacker who can influence file download parameters can crash the application using it, causing a denial of service.
Read the original description
The GridFS file download API in the MongoDB C Driver does not check the result of an internal operation under certain error conditions during file retrieval. This can cause the process to terminate when stream operations continue. A user who can influence file download parameters can trigger this condition, which may result in service unavailability for applications using the affected API.
