Answer in brief
CVE-2026-18687 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in Improper Validation in MongoDB Queryable Encryption Maintenance Operation Leads to Denial of Service and Index Corruption. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps MongoDB/MongoDB Server (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

MongoDB Server's handling of a Queryable Encryption maintenance operation did not properly validate certain request parameters against the collection's encrypted field configuration before use. An authenticated user with readWrite privileges could submit a specially formed request that leads to a server crash or excessive internal writes, resulting in resource exhaustion and corruption of encrypted index data.
