Hi [~stephan.naecker], I think this commit [https://github.com/apache/cxf/commit/395cba5b5a6b6725e6a54d41ee9b3b1675ffbb43] is the culprit, the {color:#2a00ff}"Content-Length"{color} header is filtered out. By default in 3.6.1, CXF uses HttpClient as underlying client transport and it does not (apparently) allow setting this header. One of the possible options - switch to back to URLConnectionHTTPConduit, that should fix the issue. 

I would be happy to help you there but need a bit of help to understand how you configure and run your application. Spring? Servlet Container? Something else?

>             Project: CXF
>          Issue Type: Bug
>    Affects Versions: 3.6.1
>         Environment: SpringBoot 2.7.13

>            Priority: Major
>
> After updating the CXF dependency in our application from 3.5.6 to 3.6.1 it does not add a content-length header anymore, when doing a multipart request for a file upload.
> I didn't find any information, how to let CXF set the header. Is it just dependent of chunking?
> Actually the application sets "allow chunking" to false. But I'm not sure, how I can test, if this really works.
> Thanks in advance for your help.
