CVE-2026-115930

MongoDB Shell (mongosh) bundled with Node.js trusts certificates issued by recoverable eMudhra intermediate CAs

Published Oct 26, 2026 CVSS 4.0 · 7.6 High EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
The MongoDB Shell (mongosh) relies on Node.js as a third-party runtime that carries its own TLS root certificate store. This certificate store has the recoverable eMudhra intermediate CA certificates. This issue impacts MongoDB Shell (mongosh) versions prior to 2.14.0 and can be resolved by updating to mongosh 2.14.0 which bundles Node.js 24.22.1 or later. If mongosh is installed through npm, it uses the Node.js runtime installed on the host; update that runtime separately.
