## Description

A bug in query analysis of certain complex self-referential $lookup
subpipelines may result in literal values in expressions for encrypted
fields to be sent to the server as plaintext instead of ciphertext. Should
this occur, no documents would be returned or written. This issue affects
mongocryptd binary (v5.0 versions prior to 5.0.29, v6.0 versions prior to
6.0.17, v7.0 versions prior to 7.0.12 and v7.3 versions prior to 7.3.4) and
mongo\_crypt\_v1.so shared libraries (v6.0 versions prior to 6.0.17, v7.0
versions prior to 7.0.12 and v7.3 versions prior to 7.3.4) released
alongside MongoDB Enterprise Server versions.
