CVE-2026-125117: Mongoose walks into inherited properties when hydrating, setting, and merging, allowing overwrites of built-in functions (denial of service) and shared schema…

Mongoose is a MongoDB object modeling tool designed to work in an asynchronous environment. Prior to 6.13.12, 7.8.13, 8.24.7, and 9.11.4, Mongoose can descend into inherited properties while loading database documents in init(), setting dotted paths in $__set, and merging update documents in utils.mergeClone. Attacker-controlled keys such as toString or valueOf can therefore cause Mongoose to write into shared built-in functions instead of an own property. A crafted document, Mixed path, non-strict document or subdocument, findOneAndReplace() replacement, chained update, or Query.prototype.merge() source can overwrite Object.prototype.toString.call, causing later queries on unrelated models to fail until the process restarts. Separately, when an attacker controls the dotted path passed to doc.set(path, value) for a subdocument configured with strict: false, descent through $__set can reach $__schema and alter shared validators or schema options for later documents. Mongoose already blocks __proto__, constructor, and prototype, so this issue overwrites properties on reachable shared objects rather than adding new properties directly to Object.prototype. This issue is fixed in versions 6.13.12, 7.8.13, 8.24.7, and 9.11.4.
