6.8.1 (2024-09-06)
The MongoDB Node.js team is pleased to announce version 6.8.1 of the mongodb package!
Release Notes
Fixed enableUtf8Validation option
Starting in v6.8.0 we inadvertently removed the ability to disable UTF-8 validation when deserializing BSON. Validation is normally a good thing, but it was always meant to be configurable and the recent Node.js runtime issues (v22.7.0) make this option indispensable for avoiding errors from mistakenly generated invalid UTF-8 bytes.
Bug Fixes

We invite you to try the mongodb library immediately, and report any issues to the NODE project.
