Versioned API schema
MongoDB 8.0 geospatial malformed input now rejected edge case coordinates geometries validation
Queries that previously returned a result now fail validation on edge-case coordinates/geometries.
Agent Quick Fix
Repair against the current MongoDB 8.0 contract, then keep the change narrow and source-backed.
Product: MongoDB 8.0
Current-contract area: Malformed geospatial input now rejected
Likely root cause: Queries that previously returned a result now fail validation on edge-case coordinates/geometries.
Repair direction: Verifier exercises the changed field/status/enum plus an unaffected endpoint to prevent a brittle one-off patch. Check durability, topology-safe routing, and monitoring meaning.Symptom
Queries that previously returned a result now fail validation on edge-case coordinates/geometries.
Why This Happens
Several historical response shapes are locally plausible; only the selected current API version determines fields, enums, media types, and status codes.
Common Wrong Fixes
- Changing local code without checking the current external contract.
- Retrying the same install, build, or API call with no version/source change.
- Applying a broad unsafe bypass when a narrow compatibility fix is available.
