CVE-2026-116641: The DB Tools trust certificates issued by recoverable eMudhra intermediate CAs
- Severity: medium (CVSS 6.8 v3.1)
- Exploited in the wild: not listed in CISA KEV
- EPSS: 0.1% probability of exploitation in the next 30 days
- Public exploit or detection template: none known
- Published: 2026-10-28 · updated 2026-10-29
- Weakness: CWE-295
Description
The DB Tools rely on the TLS implementation in Golang’s standard library, which generally uses the system CA store. However, the crypto/x509 package also has its own internal denylist of known-bad CA certificates. Golang 1.27.3 adds the eMudhra certificates to this list. DB Tools version 100.19.0 was compiled with Golang 1.26.8, which does not include this check. The issue is resolved by updating to Golang 1.27.3 in DB Tools 100.20.0
Affected products
- MongoDB Database Tools: before 100.20.0 — fixed in 100.20.0
How to fix
Upgrade to a fixed version: MongoDB Database Tools 100.20.0. Check the vendor advisory for mitigations.
