Percona Server for MongoDB 4.4.29-28 (2024-04-02)

Installation

Percona Server for MongoDB 4.4.29-28 is a source available, highly-scalable database that is a fully-compatible, drop-in replacement for MongoDB 4.4.29 Community Edition enhanced with enterprise-grade features.

It supports protocols and drivers of MongoDB 4.4.29.

Warning

Due to CVE-2024-1351, in all MongoDB versions prior to 4.4.29, the mongod server allows incoming connections to skip peer certificate validation which results in untrusted connections to succeed. This issue occurs when the mongod is started with TLS enabled (net.tls.mode set to allowTLS, preferTLS, or requireTLS) and without a net.tls.CAFile configured. For details, see SERVER-72839.

The issue is fixed upstream in versions 4.4.29, 5.0.25, 6.0.14 and 7.0.6 and in Percona Server for MongoDB 4.4.29-28, 5.0.25-22, 6.0.14-11 and 7.0.7-4. Now, configuring MongoDB to use TLS requires specifying the value for the --tlsCAFile flag, the net.tls.CAFileconfiguration option, or the tlsUseSystemCA parameter.

Release Highlights

  • This is the last minor release in Percona Server for MongoDB 4.4.
