Overview

CVE-2026-93758 is a high-severity vulnerability affecting mongodb mongoid. It was published on September 18, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.1, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

An insecure direct object reference in the nested attributes handling of the Mongoid object-document mapper may allow a user with basic application privileges to reference a record identifier that is not their own. Processing such a request can cause that record to be looked up without the usual ownership or scoping restrictions, then updated and linked to the requesting user's own record. This may result in unintended disclosure and unauthorized modification of data belonging to other users of the application.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories and patches from mongodb. Update mongoid to the latest patched version. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
