+# Thirty-Party Vulnerabilities
+
+<!--
+
+See docs/dev/deps.rst for an explanation of this file.
+
+-->
+
+This document lists known vulnerabilities in third-party dependencies that are
+directly bundled with standard release product for the MongoDB C Driver.
+
+This document was created on **$today** using data from
+[Snyk Security](https://security.snyk.io), and the details herein reflect
+information that was available at that time.
+
+> [!IMPORTANT]
+>
+> The "standard release product" is defined as the set of files which are
+> _installed_ by a configuration, build, and install. This includes
+> static/shared library files, header files, and packaging files for supported
+> build configurations.
+>
+> Vulnerabilities for 3rd party dependencies that are bundled with the standard
+> release product are reported in this document. Test files, utility scripts,
+> documentation generators, and other miscellaneous files and artifacts are NOT
+> considered part of the standard release product, even if they are included in
+> the release distribution tarball. Vulnerabilities for such 3rd party
+> dependencies are NOT reported in this document.
+>
+> Details on packages that are not tracked tracked by Snyk Security will not
+> appear in this document.

+
+- **Date Detected**: 2024-06-24

+- **Snyk Entry**: [SNYK-UNMANAGED-MADLERZLIB-5969359](https://security.snyk.io/vuln/SNYK-UNMANAGED-MADLERZLIB-5969359)
+- **Severity**: High
+- **Description**: Affected versions of this package are vulnerable to Integer
+  Overflow or Wraparound via the `MiniZip` function in `zlib`, by providing a
+  long filename, comment, or extra field.
+- **Upstream Fix Status**: Fix available (1.3.1, 2024-01-22)
+- **mongo-c-driver Fix Status**: Fix available (1.27.3, 2024-06-26)
+- **Notes**: This issue was related to Zip file handling, which was not used by
+  mongo-c-driver. This errant code was never reachable via the C driver APIs.
+
+## `jsonsl`, `utf8proc`, and `uthash`
+
+These bundled dependencies are present within the release archive, but are not
+tracked by Snyk and therefore no vulnerability information is available.
