      RSA Netwitness is using MongoDB as an off-the-shelf product and using different versions of MongoDB (4.0.x & 4.2.x). We are also using Nexpose and Nessus vulnerability scanners in our product to identify any vulnerabilities. When these scanners are executed, MongoDB is crashing. 

       

      As this behavior is present across different versions of MongoDB, this issue is suspected in MongoDB.

      Below is the crash dump.

       One observation is that it crashes only if MongoDB is configured with SSL. Below is the config snippet of MongoDB. If I download MongoDB and use it with default config (without any SSL), it works fine.
