Use-After-Free in MongoDB Geospatial Validation Leads to Denial of Service
CVE-2026-18700 is fixed in MongoDB on 1 platform by MongoDB 8.3.11 (version 8.3.11), released September 9, 2026. It is not reported as exploited. Patch Radar priority: Routine.
An issue in MongoDB Server's geospatial validation could allow an authenticated user with write privileges to cause an internal reference to be used after the underlying memory has been freed, through concurrent operations against a collection using a certain type of validator. This could result in a server crash, leading to a denial of service.
