CVE-2026-1848: Connections received from the proxy port may not count towards total accepted connections
Noroxi assessment
Priority: Monitor (action score 32/100)
- The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.30% (FIRST EPSS).
- Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No user action is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
- According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
- Fixed version: MongoDB Inc MongoDB Server 7.0.29, 8.0.18, 8.2.4.
Low priority for now. Upgrade to MongoDB Inc MongoDB Server 7.0.29, 8.0.18, 8.2.4 or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS
Connections received from the proxy port may not count towards total accepted connections, resulting in server crashes if the total number of connections exceeds available resources. This only applies to connections accepted from the proxy port, pending the proxy protocol header.
