Descriptions

Specific MongoDB Rust Driver versions can include credentials used by the connection pool to authenticate connections in the monitoring event that is emitted when the pool is created. The user's logging infrastructure could then potentially ingest these events and unexpectedly leak the credentials. Note that such monitoring is not enabled by default. This issue affects MongoDB Rust Driver version 2.0.0-alpha, MongoDB Rust Driver version 2.0.0-alpha1 and MongoDB Rust Driver version 1.0.0 through to and including 1.2.1

Unas versiones específicas de MongoDB Rust Driver pueden incluir credenciales usadas por el pool de conexiones para autenticar conexiones en el evento de monitorización que es emitido cuando el pool es creado. La infraestructura de registro del usuario podría entonces ingerir potencialmente estos eventos y filtrar inesperadamente las credenciales. Ten cuenta que esta monitorización no está habilitada por defecto
