MongoDB SQL Schema Builder CLI Auth Data Exposed in stdout & logs
CVE-2026-19502 Published on August 12, 2026

Insufficient redaction of sensitive configuration values in diagnostic output of MongoDB SQL Schema Builder CLI
MongoDB SQL Schema Builder CLI records its startup configuration to standard output and, when file logging is enabled, to a log file on disk. Certain connection settings were written without redaction, so authentication material supplied by the operator could appear in plaintext in that diagnostic output. A local user with read access to the terminal session or the log directory, or anyone with access to a location where those logs are subsequently collected, could obtain those values.
