      I have had two reports and seen a demonstration of audit trail corruption on OSX, MacOS catalina when writing a BSON audit trail - whilst this is a rare combination I'm concerned it may be a more systematic issue and affect other parts of the DB.

      Basically the audit trail on catalina does not contain the expected, valid BSON data.
