An issue in MongoDB Server's handling of timeseries collections could allow an authenticated user with write privileges to cause an internal data structure to become inconsistent through certain document insertions. A subsequent insert into the affected bucket could then result in the server accessing memory outside its intended bounds, potentially causing a server crash (denial of service), exposure of limited memory contents, or memory corruption.
