Due to an incompatibility between a new kernel release and the currently vendored version of TCMalloc, running MongoDB 8.0 or newer with Linux kernel version 6.19 or later can cause MongoDB to crash on startup. This applies to all MongoDB packages, including those obtained from the MongoDB website, or obtained from package managers or Doc+ker. The crashes only impact customers not running on one of the currently supported Operating Systems for MongoDB or who have purposely upgraded to the latest kernel version manually.
To resolve a crash, you can downgrade to Linux Kernel 6.19 or earlier.
We are actively working with contributors from both Linux and TCMalloc to resolve this issue and will update the community when Linux Kernel 6.19 and later are supported.
