NoSQL Injection (MongoDB)

Description

A maliciously crafted input can potentially inject arbitrary database operations, enabling an attacker to execute unintended queries or even delete entire databases.

Recommendation

Implement proper sanitization and whitelisting of user-supplied data, ensuring that only trusted inputs are used in query construction. Always maintain the latest versions of MongoDB drivers and follow best practices for querying.
