Improper neutralization of regular-expression metacharacters in the LINQ query translation component of the MongoDB C# Driver can cause a caller-supplied character sequence to alter a regular-expression predicate generated by an affected application.
Does this matter?
High impact if exploited, but EPSS currently rates exploitation as unlikely (0.22%). Schedule it in the normal patch cycle and watch for a rise in EPSS or a public exploit.
Description
Improper neutralization of regular-expression metacharacters in the LINQ query translation component of the MongoDB C# Driver can cause a caller-supplied character sequence to alter a regular-expression predicate generated by an affected application. An authenticated user who can influence such a value may cause the application to return records beyond those intended by the original filter.
