CVSS v3.1 |
| SiYuan before 3.8.9 contains a nil pointer dereference vulnerability in privateCacheMiddleware that allows authenticated attackers to crash the kernel by reading nonexistent MCP resources. Attackers with a valid API token can send a resources/read request in an initialized MCP session, causing a panic that terminates the kernel process and interrupts service. |
| SiYuan 3.8.7 through 3.8.8 fails to normalize Windows GLOBALROOT device-namespace aliases, bypassing the IsSensitivePath denylist. Attackers can invoke importStdMd with a GLOBALROOT-prefixed path to copy the API token and TLS private key into the publicly served assets directory. |
| SiYuan's development branch (endpoint introduced by commit 9b8e8956f, not present in v3.7.3 or master, patched in v3.7.4-alpha.3) contains a missing-authorization vulnerability in the /api/av/getAttributeViewSearchTarget endpoint. The route is registered with CheckAuth only and performs no authorization checks (no CheckReadonly, no publish-access or encrypted-notebook gating). Given a database identifier taken from a published page and a keyword, an anonymous reader can query the endpoint to retrieve matching database row content, including rows that publish filters (FilterAttributeViewByPublishAccess) would otherwise withhold. No released stable version is affected. |
| SiYuan v3.7.4-alpha.1 (a pre-release; the endpoint does not exist in stable v3.7.3 or earlier) contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the /api/av/getAttributeViewFieldViews endpoint. The route is registered with CheckAuth only and applies no publish-access filtering, so reader-role callers can retrieve the complete database view structure — every view's name, icon, layout type, and per-field Hidden flag — for any database whose avID is supplied, regardless of authorization. The issue was introduced by commit acfc02ee8 and fixed in v3.7.4-alpha.2. |
| SiYuan from 2.10.0 before 3.8.7 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability that allows users with edit permission to inject script by placing javascript: URLs in math block content rendered with KaTeX trust enabled. Attackers can store \href, \url, or \includegraphics payloads that mathRender assigns via innerHTML, executing script in the application origin when a reader clicks the rendered link. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.7 contains an sql injection vulnerability that allows admin-token holders to read history.db by injecting unescaped op and type=3 query values. Attackers can send crafted UNION SELECT payloads to searchHistory or getHistoryItems endpoints to exfiltrate deleted document content, titles, and paths. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.4 contains an authorization omission in the siyuan-get IPC handler that allows remote-kernel renderers to access native clipboard formats by invoking clipboardReadMathML, clipboardReadOffice, and clipboardReadWPS commands with matching plaintext. Attackers controlling remote renderer content can obtain MathML formulas, Office bytes, and WPS bytes from local clipboard during user-mediated paste operations. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.4 contains an authentication bypass vulnerability in the publish service where session cookies are issued without Secure or SameSite attributes over plaintext HTTP connections. An on-path attacker can observe a valid publish-visitor-session-id cookie from a Basic Auth exchange and replay it to access authenticated publish endpoints without knowing the account password. |
| SiYuan from 2.9.0 before 3.8.7 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the unauthenticated /check-auth page that assigns the to parameter to window.location.href without scheme validation. Attackers can send a crafted link with a javascript: URI that executes after victim login, invoking kernel APIs to read or modify workspace content and settings. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 fail to properly filter related-database content in renderAttributeView, allowing anonymous readers to access Relation and Rollup cell contents from hidden or password-protected databases. Attackers can request published databases that relate to restricted databases to retrieve sensitive content, or bypass row filtering entirely when the first column is a non-block type. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 fail to enforce publish-access checks on getBlockBreadcrumb, getRefText, and getBlockTreeInfos endpoints, allowing disclosure of protected document content and metadata. Anonymous readers or publish RoleReader accounts can retrieve document titles, ancestor block content snippets, reference text, and path metadata for publish-forbidden or password-protected documents by supplying block IDs. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the getEncryptedNotebookStatus endpoint that returns encrypted notebook identifiers, names, and lock states without publish-access filtering. Anonymous readers and publish-mode accounts can enumerate all encrypted notebooks and their current unlock status, revealing sensitive notebook names and decryption state in memory. |
| SiYuan versions <= v3.7.2 (patched in v3.7.4) contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in the kernel's CheckAuth function, which grants the administrator role (RoleAdministrator) to any request whose RemoteAddr is loopback (127.0.0.1) for a specific set of endpoints (including /api/system/exit, getNetwork, getWorkspaceInfo, /assets/*, and /export/*). These localhost bypasses sit outside the access auth code gate, so they apply even when an access auth code is configured. Because the fixed-port reverse proxy forwards requests to the kernel over loopback without injecting an authentication token and does not configure trusted proxies, a request forwarded through this proxy reaches the kernel with RemoteAddr = 127.0.0.1. If the fixed-port proxy is bound to a network interface, this could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain admin access on the affected endpoints; however, per the advisory this remote forwarding behavior was established only by code inspection and was not reproduced end-to-end. |
| SiYuan before v3.7.4 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the file upload validation flow that fails to escape filenames before inserting them into HTML via insertAdjacentHTML. Attackers can craft a malicious filename containing script payloads that execute with full OS command access when a user drags, drops, or pastes the file into the editor. |
| SiYuan v3.1.12 before v3.8.6 fails to restrict the Sprig template function map in the /api/icon/getDynamicIcon content parameter, allowing resource exhaustion. A publish reader, or anyone when publish auth is disabled, can use uncapped functions like until to OOM-kill the kernel with one request. |
| SiYuan v3.7.0 before v3.8.6 contains an absolute path traversal vulnerability in the kernel's private plugin HTTP server, which passes a kernel plugin handler's ResponseFile.Path to gin's Context.File without validation. Attackers supplying a malicious kernel plugin can return an absolute path to read any file readable by the SiYuan process, including the API token and conf.json. |
| SiYuan before v3.7.4 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the file-tree picker's hover-tooltip generation (app/src/util/pathName.ts, getLeaf()/movePathTo()) used by the 'move/link to' path-selection dialogs, where document metadata fields (bookmark, alias, memo, and an alternate name field) are concatenated into the aria-label HTML attribute without escaping. A document crafted with a double quote in any of these fields breaks out of the attribute context and injects arbitrary HTML attributes including inline event handlers (e.g., onmouseover). Because every SiYuan Electron BrowserWindow runs with nodeIntegration:true, contextIsolation:false, and no CSP, the injected handler gains require('child_process') access, escalating the XSS to arbitrary OS command execution when a victim merely hovers over the malicious document entry in the path-picker dialog. Malicious documents reach victims via sharing, sync, or import. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.5 contains a missing authorization vulnerability in the getRefCreateSavePath, getShorthandSavePath, and getDocCreateSavePath endpoints that allows read-only publish visitors to learn unpublished notebook box IDs. Attackers with read-only or anonymous publish access can POST any open notebook ID to receive the global save-box ID and save-path template, revealing a hidden notebook's existence and creation time. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.8.4 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the checkoutRepo endpoint that allows authenticated administrators to write JSON files outside the workspace. Attackers can supply a sessionID parameter containing directory traversal sequences to overwrite arbitrary JSON files in pre-existing kernel-writable directories outside workspace boundaries. |
| SiYuan is a self-hosted personal knowledge management system. In versions 3.8.0 through 3.8.3, the MCP file tool's sensitive-path guard (util.IsForbiddenAbsPath(), invoked from resolvePath()) is applied only to the allowed root of recursive operations and not to each resolved descendant path — an incomplete fix for GHSA-c8r8-95hg-mp34. An authenticated administrator using the in-app Agent or the external MCP server can therefore bypass the protected-workspace-file denylist: file.grep can return matching lines from non-hidden protected descendants (for example conf/conf.json, TLS keys, data/snippets/conf.json, data/templates/, data/.siyuan/publishAccess.json, notebook .siyuan internals, or the kernel log), file.copy can copy protected descendants to an ordinary path where file.read can then retrieve them, and unzip can overwrite protected descendants using ordinary, lexically contained ZIP member names. Because file.grep is globally classified as a safe action, it receives no per-call confirmation, and the confirmation cards for file.copy and unzip show only the allowed root arguments. This issue is fixed in version 3.8.4. Suggested title: SiYuan 3.8.0 through 3.8.3 Sensitive-Path Guard Bypass in Recursive MCP File Operations. |
