Short explanation

Improper privilege management in Progress MarkLogic Server 12.x and 11.x releases allows a remote attacker with query-execution access to invoke an XQuery evaluation function without required evaluation privileges, potentially resulting in server-side code execution with elevated permissions [S0].

Why does it matter?

This CRITICAL vulnerability allows unauthorized users to bypass privilege boundaries and execute code with elevated permissions on the server. Official patch status remains unverified in checked sources [S0].

What should be done?

Show the technical text from the sources

Progress MarkLogic Server 12.x releases before 12.1.0 and 11.x releases before 11.3.7 allow a remote attacker with query-execution access to invoke an XQuery evaluation function without the additional required evaluation privilege, which could result in server-side code execution with elevated permissions.
