Скачать или смотреть MongoDB Under the Microscope: MongoBleed CVE-2025-14847 Deep Dive with Lab and exploit

MongoBleed (CVE-2025-14847) is a critical MongoDB vulnerability that allows unauthenticated, remote memory extraction through a flaw in zlib compression handling. While this is not a native remote code execution (RCE), it enables attackers to leak uninitialized heap memory, including credentials, tokens, configuration data, and runtime metadata.

In this video, Francesco Cipollone breaks down:
• how the MongoBleed vulnerability works at protocol and code level
• why memory disclosure can be more dangerous than classic RCE
• which MongoDB versions are affected and which releases are patched
• how widespread exposure looks in the wild
• what defenders should monitor for detection and incident response
• how to mitigate risk if immediate patching is not possible

MongoBleed is reachable before authentication, requires no malformed packets, and leaves very little telemetry. With public proof-of-concept code already available, exploitation becomes a scanning and harvesting problem rather than a research challenge.
