Eval Script not working for mongo db 3.0.2

I have upgraded my MongoDB to 3.0.2 from 2.4.10. I am having the database "abc" with user as "xt". I can able to do crud operation after authenticating using db.authenticate() but I am not able to run the eval command. It throws the error as

Unauthorized not authorized on abc to execute command { $eval: "deleteDetails()" }

When I check the admin database system.users collection for the database user is

{
    "_id" : "abc.xt",
    "user" : "xt",
    "db" : "abc",
    "credentials" : {
        "SCRAM-SHA-1" : {
            "iterationCount" : 10000,
            "salt" : "mydgFCRFo05wh616qw6g1g==",
            "storedKey" : "c8YfzCZZ1qqw2EM8MRDQugQFk4s=",
            "serverKey" : "4JVLAIevhbJI6PtdDRRbelJa4pU="
        }
    },
    "roles" : [
        {
            "role" : "dbOwner",
            "db" : "abc"
        }
    ]
}

Can anyone tell, what may be the problem and also I saw that eval is deprecated, if so what can be the alternative for using in both mongo shell and node js.

As of 2.6 they made the eval command require superuser access to the database so as a dbOwner you don't have enough access. I'm researching this myself and I believe the command/runCommand might work to replace eval since it is now deprecated.
