CVE-2026-9190 is an HTTP request smuggling vulnerability in the HTTP App Server component of Progress MarkLogic Server. It affects MarkLogic Server 11.x before 11.3.6 and 12.x before 12.0.3. The flaw arises when a crafted HTTP request containing both Content-Length and Transfer-Encoding headers is processed inconsistently by an upstream reverse proxy and MarkLogic Server, causing the two systems to disagree on request boundaries. This parser discrepancy enables request smuggling conditions that can let attacker-controlled data be interpreted as part of a subsequent request stream. The vulnerability is classified as CWE-444.
