{"id":"BIT-mongodb-2026-13074","summary":"Awaitable Hello Command in Exhaust Mode Unthrottled Response Loop Leading to Denial of Service","details":"An unauthenticated remote client can cause excessive CPU consumption on a MongoDB server by sending a specific combination of parameters to the awaitable hello command in exhaust mode.
