Certain query operations involving deeply nested $jsonSchema constructs can trigger disproportionate CPU consumption in affected MongoDB deployments, potentially leading to resource exhaustion. The resulting CPU-bound operation cannot be interrupted through standard administrative controls.
Weakness
An algorithm in a product has an inefficient worst-case computational complexity that may be detrimental to system performance and can be triggered by an attacker, typically using crafted manipulations that ensure that the worst case is being reached.
