Summary
Red Hat Security Advisory: mongodb security update

Notes

Topic
Updated mongodb packages that fix one security issue are now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux OpenStack Platform 4.0. The Red Hat Security Response Team has rated this update as having Moderate security impact. A Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) base score, which gives a detailed severity rating, is available from the CVE link in the References section.
Details
MongoDB is a NoSQL database. A buffer over-read flaw was found in the way MongoDB handled BSON data. A database user permitted to insert BSON data into a MongoDB server could use this flaw to read server memory, potentially disclosing sensitive data. (CVE-2012-6619) All mongodb users are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which contain a backported patch to correct this issue.
