Type:

CWE-285 Improper Authorization

Publication date:

06/08/2019

Last modified:

Description

After user deletion in MongoDB Server the improper invalidation of authorization sessions allows an authenticated user&#39;s session to persist and become conflated with new accounts, if those accounts reuse the names of deleted ones. This issue affects MongoDB Server v4.0 versions prior to 4.0.9; MongoDB Server v3.6 versions prior to 3.6.13 and MongoDB Server v3.4 versions prior to 3.4.22. Workaround: After deleting one or more users, restart any nodes which may have had active user authorization sessions. Refrain from creating user accounts with the same name as previously deleted accounts.
