5 security issues in bullseye high

There are 5 open security issues in bullseye.

1 important issue:

CVE-2026-9100: The MongoDB C Driver's legacy GridFS API accepts malformed file metadata from the database without adequate validation. Crafted documents in a GridFS collection may cause any application that reads those files via the legacy API to either crash (via a division-by-zero) or silently leak process memory contents (via an out-of-bounds read).

4 issues postponed or untriaged:

CVE-2026-4359: (postponed; to be fixed through a stable update) A compromised third party cloud server or man-in-the-middle attacker could send a malformed HTTP response and cause a crash in applications using the MongoDB C driver.
CVE-2026-6231: (postponed; to be fixed through a stable update) The bson_validate function may return early on specific inputs and incorrectly report success. This behavior could result in skipping validation for BSON data, allowing malformed or invalid UTF-8 sequences to bypass validation and be processed incorrectly. The issue may affect applications that rely on these functions to validate untrusted BSON data before further processing. This issue affects MongoDB C Driver versions prior to 1.30.5, MongoDB C Driver version 2.0.0 and MongoDB C Driver version 2.0.1
CVE-2026-6691: (postponed; to be fixed through a stable update) The MongoDB C Driver's Cyrus SASL integration performs unsafe string copying during username canonicalization, enabling a heap buffer overflow before any authentication or network traffic. This may be triggered by passing untrusted input in the username of a MongoDB URI with authMechanism=GSSAPI.
CVE-2025-14911: (postponed; to be fixed through a stable update) User-controlled chunkSize metadata from MongoDB lacks appropriate validation allowing malformed GridFS metadata to overflow the bounding container.
