Description

An improper privilege management vulnerability in the REST API document processing pipeline of Progress MarkLogic Server before 11.3.6 and 12.0.3 allows an authenticated user with an administrative REST role to escalate privileges. This can result in unauthorized disclosure of sensitive server-side data when it is accessed by a higher-privileged user.
