The BSON spec defines two string types:

The "string" type is a sequence of bytes encoded with a length. This sequence can include null bytes since the length of the sequence is encoded.
The "cstring" type is a null terminated sequence of bytes. It is not encoded with a length. The sequence ends with a null byte so it can not include null bytes.

This ticket is to validate that drivers do not allow sequences including null bytes wherever a cstring is required (e.g. document keys, database and collection name, regular expressions, ...)

depends on

CXX-519 Ensure null bytes are not allowed within cstrings (keys, db/coll name, regex)
