Description
Executive Summary
A NoSQL injection issue exists in the langgraph-checkpoint-mongodb and langgraph-store-mongodb libraries. MongoDBSaver.list() and MongoDBStore.search() methods accept a filter parameter that is incorporated into MongoDB queries without sufficient validation. Because MongoDB query operator keys (those prefixed with $) are not rejected during filter construction, a caller with control of the filter input can embed MongoDB query operators directly into the query.

Advisory FAQ
How do I know if I am affected?
You are likely affected if all of the following are true:
- Your application uses
langgraph-checkpoint-mongodborlanggraph-store-mongodb. - Your application calls
MongoDBSaver.list(),MongoDBSaver.alist(), orMongoDBStore.search()with afilterargument. - Any part of that
filterargument is derived from user-controlled input — for example, HTTP query parameters, request body fields, or agent tool arguments. - You operate in a multi-tenant context where the
filteris used to enforce per-user or per-tenant data isolation.
If the filter argument is constructed entirely from trusted, server-side values, the practical risk is
lower, but upgrading is still recommended.
How do I fix the issue?
Upgrade to the version of langgraph-checkpoint-mongodb and langgraph-store-mongodb.
If you cannot upgrade immediately, apply the following mitigation: in your application code,
before passing any user-controlled input to the filter parameter, remove or escape MongoDB
Query metacharacters such as “$”.

Detection & mitigation playbook
Open-source dependencyDetect
Scan your dependency tree (package-lock.json, pnpm-lock.yaml, requirements.txt, go.sum, etc.) for langgraph-checkpoint-mongodb, including transitive dependencies — a direct dependency you never call can still pull in a vulnerable version.
Fix
Update langgraph-checkpoint-mongodb to 0.3.0 or later, then make sure no transitive (indirect) dependency still pins the vulnerable range — O3 confirms GHSA-533j-2v4q-mw5h is resolved across your whole dependency graph.
Workarounds
Until you can upgrade, make sure every query built from user input uses parameterised statements or a prepared-statement API rather than string concatenation, and reduce the database account's privileges so an injected query cannot read or alter data beyond what the feature needs.
