      Currently, almost all commands use BSONElement::numberLong or BSONElement::numberInt to parse user input for fields that expect a number. This results in undefined behavior when the input is outside the range of a valid integer type.

      User-facing commands should use BSONElement::safeNumberLong instead. See the geoNear command as an example.
