Overview

Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Improper Null Termination due to insufficient check of HTTP response parsing. An attacker can cause application crashes by sending specially crafted malformed HTTP responses.

Note:

This is only exploitable if the application connects to untrusted MongoDB instances or operates over untrusted networks.
