An authenticated user without any specific authorizations may be able to repeatedly invoke the features command where at a high volume may lead to resource depletion or generate high lock contention. This may result in denial of service and in rare cases could result in id field collisions. This issue affects MongoDB Server v5.0 versions prior to and including 5.0.3; MongoDB Server v4.4 versions prior to and including 4.4.9; MongoDB Server v4.2 versions prior to and including 4.2.16 and MongoDB Server v4.0 versions prior to and including 4.0.28

An attacker with basic CRUD permissions on a replicated collection can run the applyOps command with specially malformed oplog entries, resulting in a potential denial of service on secondaries. This issue affects MongoDB Server v4.0 versions prior to 4.0.27; MongoDB Server v4.2 versions prior to 4.2.16; MongoDB Server v4.4 versions prior to 4.4.9.
