An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2023-1409 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected packages and fixed versions:\n- mongodb (Bitnami): affected from 4.4.0; fixed in 4.4.23, 5.0.15, 6.0.7, 6.3.3\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1409/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1409/index.md)","id":"CVE-2023-1409","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1409/index.md","name":"CVE-2023-1409","record":{"aliases":["BIT-mongodb-2023-1409","GHSA-pjfq-h6gx-wrcf"],"analysis":{"component_type":"database","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["security_bypass"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"MongoDB Server","requires_auth":"none","summary":"Attackers can bypass client certificate validation on Windows or macOS MongoDB servers using TLS, allowing unauthorized connections with any certificate.","user_interaction":"required","vuln_class":"security_feature_bypass"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"mongodb","cpe":[{"product":"mongodb","vendor":"mongodb"}],"cvss":{"score":5.3,"severity":"medium","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:H/PR:N/UI:R/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:N","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-295","name":"Improper Certificate Validation"}],"description":"If the MongoDB Server running on Windows or macOS is configured to use TLS with a specific set of configuration options that are already known to work securely in other platforms (e.g. Linux), it is possible that client certificate validation may not be in effect, potentially allowing client to establish a TLS connection with the server that supplies any certificate.\n\nThis issue affect all MongoDB Server v6.3 versions, MongoDB Server v5.0 versions v5.0.0 to v5.0.14 and all MongoDB Server v4.4 versions.","ecosystems":["Bitnami"],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"Certificate validation issue in MongoDB Server running on Windows or macOS","id":"CVE-2023-1409","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","product":"mongodb:mongodb","products":["mongodb:mongodb"],"type":"security_feature_bypass","year":"2023"},"n_packages":1,"n_references":3,"next":{"headline":"Stored XSS in Graphite FunctionDescription tooltip","id":"CVE-2023-1410"},"packages":[{"ecosystem":"Bitnami","fixed":["4.4.23","5.0.15","6.0.7","6.3.3"],"introduced":["4.4.0","5.0.0","6.0.0","6.3.0"],"last_affected":[],"package":"mongodb","purl":"pkg:bitnami/mongodb","source":"BIT-mongodb-2023-1409"}],"prev":{"headline":"Video List Manager \u003c= 1.7 - Admin+ SQL Injection","id":"CVE-2023-1408"},"products":["MongoDB Server"],"published":"2023-08-23","related":[{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"MongoDB and MongoDB Server Improper Handling of Length Parameter Inconsistency","id":"CVE-2025-14847","kev_date_added":"2025-12-29","published":"2025-12-19"},{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"Auth bypass in MongoDB Server","id":"CVE-2026-82067","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-08"},{"cvss_score":9.2,"headline":"MongoDB Improper Input Validation in Compute Mode External Data Processing Leading to Memory Corruption","id":"CVE-2026-13072","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-07-22"},{"cvss_score":9.1,"headline":"Denial of service in n/a","id":"CVE-2017-15535","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2017-11-01"},{"cvss_score":9,"headline":"Improper Authentication in MongoDB Intra-Cluster Connections Allows Credential Exposure","id":"CVE-2026-18691","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-08-11"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"MongoDB Server may allow successful untrusted connection","id":"CVE-2024-1351","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2024-03-07"},{"cvss_score":8.7,"headline":"Denial of service in MongoDB Server","id":"CVE-2026-82064","kev_date_added":null,"published":"2026-09-08"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"Apache-2.0","name":"Bitnami","prefix":"BIT"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"CWE Terms of Use","name":"CWE (MITRE)"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2025-02-13","vendors":["MongoDB Inc"]},"summary":"Attackers can bypass client certificate validation on Windows or macOS MongoDB servers using TLS, allowing unauthorized connections with any certificate.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2023-1409/"}
