Detailed Description |
The version of the remote MongoDB server is prior to 3.3.14. It is, therefore, affected by an information disclosure in mongo shell due to the MongoDB client having world-readable permissions on .dbshell history files. An unauthenticated, local attacker can exploit this by reading these files to disclose potentially sensitive information.

* Platforms Affected: MongoDB prior to 3.3.14 Any operating system Any version |
Recommendation |
Upgrade to the latest version of MongoDB(3.3.14 or later), available from the MongoDB Web page at https://www.mongodb.com/download-center/community |
