    Percona Server for MongoDB 4.2.23-23 (2022-11-08)¶

    Release date November 8, 2022
    Installation Installing Percona Server for MongoDB

    Percona Server for MongoDB 4.2.23-23 is an enhanced, source-available, and highly-scalable database that is a fully-compatible, drop-in replacement for MongoDB 4.2.23 Community Edition. It supports MongoDB 4.2.23 protocols and drivers.

    Release Highlights¶

    • Data-at-rest encryption using the Key Management Interoperability Protocol (KMIP) is generally available enabling you to use it in your production environment

    • $backupCursor and $backupCursorExtend aggregation stages functionality is generally available, enabling your application developers to use it for building custom backup solutions.

      Note

      Percona provides Percona Backup for MongoDB - the open source tool for consistent backups and restores in MongoDB sharded clusters.

    • Fixed security vulnerability CVE-2022-3602 for Percona Server for MongoDB 4.2.21-21 and higher installed from tarballs on Ubuntu 22.04.

    The bug fixes, provided by MongoDB and included in Percona Server for MongoDB, are the following:

    • SERVER-68925 - Detect and resolve table logging inconsistencies for WiredTiger tables at startup

    • SERVER-56127 - Fixed retryable writes on update and delete commands to not execute more than once if chunk is migrated and shard key pattern uses nested fields

    • SERVER-66310 - Changed the ExpressionSetUnion::isCommutative() function to return false when a non-simple collation is in place for the $setUnion aggregation expression

    • SERVER-68359 - Prevent TTLMonitor from processing index if expireAfterSeconds value is NaN (Not a Number)

    Find the full list of bug fixes in the MongoDB 4.2.23 Community Edition release notes

    New Features¶

    • PSMDB-776: Align Docker container with upstream by adding missing mongodb-tools utilities (Thanks to Denys Holius for reporting this issue)

    Improvements¶

    • PSMDB-1116: Use proper exit code and logging severity for successful master key rotation

    Bugs Fixed¶

    • PSMDB-1172: Fixed CVE-2022-3602 by updating the libssl for Ubuntu 22.04 tarballs

    • PSMDB-1134: Prevent the server crash by ensuring the backup cursor is closed before the server shutdown

    • PSMDB-1130: Improve handling of the missing encryption key during KMIP key rotation

    • PSMDB-1129: Prevent PSMDB from starting if the configured encryption key doesn’t match the one used for data encryption

    • PSMDB-1082: Improve error handling for PSMDB when the wrong encryption key is used
