      Use Case

      The MongoCryptContext object utilizes an underlying _mongocrypt_t object but does not ensure that this object lives as long as the context is alive. This can result in segmentation faults if the _mongocrypt_t object is destroyed by V8 before the context is destroyed.

      User Experience

      • mongodb-client-encryption can crash the users' process.

      Acceptance Criteria

      Implementation Requirements

      • functional reqs, potential snafus to avoid, performance targets, etc

      Testing Requirements

      • unit test, spec test sync, etc

      Documentation Requirements

      • DOCSP ticket, API docs, etc

      Follow Up Requirements

      • additional tickets to file, required releases, etc
      • if node behavior differs/will differ from other drivers, confirm with dbx devs what standard to aim for and what plan, if any, exists to reconcile the diverging behavior moving forward
