CVSS v3.1 |
| SiYuan versions <= 3.8.1 (fixed in v3.8.2) contain an incomplete blocklist in the IsForbiddenAbsPath() function (kernel/util/path_guard.go), which only blocks conf/conf.json by exact match and does not restrict the TLS private key (conf/key.pem) or CA private key (conf/ca.key) stored in the same conf/ directory. Because the getFile handler skips the blocklist for RoleAdministrator and all authenticated users receive RoleAdministrator in v3.8.1, any user (or any client on a default no-auth-code instance) can retrieve these private keys via POST /api/file/getFile. On deployments with TLS enabled, this allows decryption of captured HTTPS traffic (key.pem) and forging of certificates trusted by clients that imported SiYuan's CA (ca.key). |
| SiYuan before v3.8.2 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in asset serving due to an incomplete extension blocklist that misses script-capable file types. Attackers can upload files with extensions like .xht, .ehtml, .xsl, .xbl, or .rdf that resolve to executable media types and execute JavaScript to steal API tokens and compromise workspaces. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.1 contains a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in confirmDialog() where unescaped package names and notebook names are interpolated directly into innerHTML assignments. Attackers can submit malicious bazaar packages with HTML/script payloads in the name field that execute in users' browsers when uninstalling packages or unlocking encrypted notebooks. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.1 fails to properly escape block name, alias, and memo fields in hint, backlink, and breadcrumb rendering functions. Attackers can set a block's name to contain HTML/script tags that execute when another user views documents referencing or displaying that block. |
| SiYuan Windows installer before version 3.8.1 (affected versions >= 2.0.14) contains an uncontrolled search path element vulnerability in its NSIS installer, which invokes system executables such as TASKKILL by name rather than by absolute path. Because NSIS nsExec::Exec resolves these calls using a search path that includes the installer's own launch directory ahead of System32, an attacker who plants a malicious executable (e.g., a renamed TASKKILL.exe) in that directory can have it executed when the installer runs. These calls occur in electron-builder's preInit hook before the license page is displayed, and with an all-users (elevated) install the planted binary executes with an elevated token, resulting in local privilege escalation. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.1 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the asset.upload MCP tool that accepts arbitrary absolute file paths without workspace boundary validation. Attackers can induce the AI Agent to upload sensitive files such as SSH keys or credentials from outside the workspace into the asset directory through prompt injection. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.8.1 contain a server-side request forgery vulnerability in the http_request and web_fetch agent tools that perform DNS resolution only at guard time without validating the connect-time resolution. Attackers can use DNS rebinding to answer the guard resolution with a public IP and the connect resolution with a private or metadata IP, bypassing the SSRF defense to access cloud instance metadata and internal services. |
| SiYuan 3.8.0 contains a path traversal / sensitive file exposure vulnerability in the RenderTemplate function (kernel/model/template.go), reachable via the POST /api/template/render endpoint (kernel/api/template.go). The endpoint restricts the supplied path only to the workspace directory (util.IsAbsPathInWorkspace) but, unlike the file API's refuseToAccess() blocklist, applies no sensitive-path exclusion. This allows an authenticated attacker to read sensitive workspace files, including conf/conf.json, which contains the API token and cookie signing key. The issue is fixed in v3.8.1. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.1 does not apply the IsForbiddenAbsPath guard (introduced in GHSA-c8r8-95hg-mp34) to the /history/*path and /repo/diff/*path endpoints in kernel/server/serve.go. These routes require admin authentication but construct file paths independently, so an authenticated administrator can retrieve historical snapshots of sensitive files that the guard is meant to block, including data/.siyuan/publishAccess.json (plaintext publish-mode passwords) and files under data/templates/. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.1 fails to filter invisible-tier content from SQL embed blocks, attribute-view keys, and attribute-view backlinks in publish mode. Anonymous readers can enumerate invisible content through these three listing mechanisms despite admin configuration marking content unlisted. |
| SiYuan versions before 3.7.4 contain a cross-site WebSocket hijacking vulnerability in the admin-only /ws/network/proxy endpoint that explicitly disables origin validation by setting CheckOrigin to unconditionally return true. Attackers can craft malicious webpages that establish WebSocket connections to this endpoint and direct the SiYuan kernel process to proxy arbitrary network traffic to attacker-chosen targets, enabling authenticated network pivoting through the victim's machine. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 fail to validate that packageName matches the downloaded package content in bazaar install endpoints. Attackers with same-origin access can overwrite existing trusted plugins by supplying mismatched packageName and repoURL parameters, achieving persistence across application restarts. |
| SiYuan before v3.8.0 interpolates secret placeholders into the destination URL parameter of the http_request MCP tool, allowing attackers to exfiltrate stored secrets. An MCP client can craft a request with an attacker-controlled URL containing secret placeholders to send plaintext secret values to any public host without confirmation. |
| SiYuan before v3.7.4 fails to set Content-Disposition and X-Content-Type-Options headers when serving arbitrary file assets, allowing stored cross-site scripting attacks. Authenticated attackers can upload HTML files as assets and execute scripts with full kernel API access when the workspace owner opens the asset link. |
| SiYuan before v3.7.4 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the /api/filetree/authFilePublishAccess endpoint, which is registered with CheckAuth only and is reachable anonymously. The endpoint never sets a failure code, so its outcome is signalled entirely by the response message and by the presence of a Set-Cookie header, and these signals differ across access tiers. By submitting requests with an empty password for a candidate document identifier, an anonymous attacker can distinguish whether a document is public/nonexistent, password-protected, or exists at the hidden or forbidden tier, thereby confirming the existence of documents they are not permitted to access. Because hidden and forbidden entries store an empty password, such requests also cause the server to issue a publish-auth cookie for forbidden documents. |
| SiYuan before v3.7.4 fails to properly escape database menu metadata in HTML interpolation, allowing stored values to execute script when users open group, view, or field-edit menus. Attackers can inject markup through field descriptions or names that close containing elements and execute arbitrary code via event handlers, reaching Node built-ins due to Electron's insecure configuration. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain a remote code execution vulnerability in the Template calculation operator, which renders user-authored Go templates and stores output verbatim without sanitization. Attackers can inject malicious HTML and JavaScript into template calculations that execute in the desktop client renderer with Node integration enabled, allowing arbitrary code execution when the database is opened. |
| SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the getRefIDsByFileAnnotationID endpoint that returns block identifiers citing PDF annotations without publish-access filtering. Attackers can extract block identifiers from restricted documents by supplying annotation identifiers visible in published pages, revealing citation relationships across forbidden and password-protected tiers. |
| siyuan versions <= 3.7.3 (fixed in v3.7.4) contain a server-side template injection vulnerability in the attribute-view Template calculation feature (introduced in v3.7.0-beta.1). The feature's template engine uses Sprig's unmodified function map, which still exposes the env, expandenv, and getHostByName functions that were removed elsewhere for CVE-2024-55660. A local, unauthenticated attacker (the kernel binds to 127.0.0.1 by default with no per-UID access control) can inject a malicious Template calculation formula to read environment variables belonging to the account running siyuan — including from a separate, unprivileged OS account — and to perform DNS lookups from the server's network position. |
| SiYuan versions <= v3.7.2 contain a SQL injection vulnerability in the backlink/mention search query (kernel/model/backlink.go), which concatenates stored block metadata (title, name, alias, anchor text) and the client-supplied keyword into a SQL MATCH/search statement while escaping only the double-quote character and not the single quote. A single quote in the client keyword (first-order, reachable by an anonymous or RoleReader user on the publish surface) or in stored document metadata (second-order) breaks out of the string literal. Because the query runs on the main read-write siyuan.db handle via a statement-stacking-capable driver, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL, enabling cross-notebook read and write. Fixed in v3.7.4. |
