Memory disclosure via query-processing out-of-bounds reads

Published Oct 12, 2026 · Updated Oct 12, 2026

Out-of-bounds reads in Progress MarkLogic Server allow remote authenticated users to disclose process memory via query processing. The supplied source identifies certain query-processing functionality, but retrieved vendor material does not disclose the specific routine, input format, or incorrect bounds operation. The supplied scope is 12.x releases before 12.1.0; exploitation requires authentication and causes limited memory disclosure or server instability, with no documented crash or hang mode.
