NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kubescape package and not the kubescape package as distributed by Chainguard. See How to fix? for Chainguard relevant fixed versions and status.

The mongo-go-driver repository contains CGo bindings for GSSAPI (Kerberos) authentication on Linux and macOS. The C wrapper implementation contains a heap out-of-bounds read vulnerability due to incorrect assumptions about string termination in the GSSAPI standard. Since GSSAPI buffers are not guaranteed to be null-terminated or have extra padding, this results in reading one byte past the allocated heap buffer.
