MongoDB Server may experience an out-of-memory failure while evaluating expressions that produce deeply nested documents. The issue arises in recursive functions because the server does not periodically check the depth of the expression.
Weakness
The product does not properly control the amount of recursion that takes place, consuming excessive resources, such as allocated memory or the program stack.
