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 versions before v3.8.2 contain an authenticated SQL injection vulnerability in the fullTextSearchBlock endpoint's method=1 query parameter. Attackers can inject UNION SELECT statements to read the entire blocks table, bypassing publish-access controls and exposing all document content and sensitive attributes.

SiYuan through 3.8.1 contains an authorization bypass vulnerability in the /api/file/getFile endpoint that allows readers to retrieve files from notebooks explicitly configured as Visible:false. Attackers with reader role can access private workspace files including notebook metadata and internal configuration by knowing the hidden notebook identifier and file path.

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 through 3.7.3 contains a cross-site scripting vulnerability in the '((' block-reference autocomplete hint popup. In genHintItemHTML() (app/src/protyle/hint/extend.ts), a candidate block's name, alias, and memo fields are concatenated into the popup's HTML without escaping. An attacker who can set these metadata fields on a block can inject a self-firing payload (e.g. ) that executes automatically when a victim types '((' followed by a search term that surfaces the crafted block. Because SiYuan's Electron windows run with nodeIntegration enabled, contextIsolation disabled, and no CSP, the injected script gains require('child_process') access, allowing the XSS to escalate to arbitrary OS command execution.

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 before v3.8.4 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the graph query endpoint where the dailyNoteSavePath parameter is concatenated into SQL without escaping. Unauthenticated attackers on published sites with auth disabled can inject SQL via UNION SELECT to extract arbitrary database rows from all notebooks.

SiYuan versions 3.7.0 before 3.8.4 contain a stored cross-site scripting vulnerability in gallery and kanban database renderers where field descriptions are not escaped in aria-label attributes. In the Electron desktop app with nodeIntegration enabled, attackers can inject JavaScript that calls Node.js child_process APIs to execute arbitrary commands with user privileges.

SiYuan before v3.8.4 does not validate the sender or restrict recipients in the 'siyuan-send-windows' IPC handler of the Electron main process (app/electron/main.js). The handler ignores event.sender and forwards any received payload to every BrowserWindow returned by BrowserWindow.getAllWindows(), including windows belonging to other opened workspaces. A renderer connected to an attacker-controlled remote kernel can therefore send {cmd: "lockscreenByMode"} and have it delivered across the workspace boundary; a sibling workspace window whose lockScreenMode is set to 1 invokes lockScreen(). Repeated messages allow the remote workspace to repeatedly lock unrelated local workspace windows, causing a limited denial of service. No confidentiality, integrity, or code-execution impact was observed.

SiYuan before v3.7.3 contains stored and reflected cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in SVG sanitization that allows authenticated attackers to execute scripts by bypassing the HTML parser-based cleaner. Attackers can hide script tags within desc, style, or noscript elements which the HTML parser treats as raw text but browsers interpret as executable SVG content when served as image/svg+xml, enabling script execution in the application origin.

SiYuan before v3.7.2 contains a path traversal vulnerability in the /export/temp/ short-circuit branch of the serveExport handler (kernel/server/serve.go). Unlike the main export branch, this branch joins the raw, percent-decoded request path with util.TempDir and serves the file without the IsSubPath or IsSensitivePath checks added in the earlier export-disclosure hardening (GHSA-6865-qjcf-286f). An authenticated attacker can send percent-encoded traversal sequences (e.g. /export/temp/%2e%2e/.../etc/passwd, where %2e%2e is decoded to '..') to read arbitrary files outside TempDir, including /etc/passwd, SSH keys (~/.ssh/*), and SiYuan workspace *.db and *.log files, bypassing the sensitive-file protection.

SiYuan before v3.6.1 fails to sanitize package metadata and README content in the Bazaar marketplace, allowing malicious package authors to inject arbitrary HTML and JavaScript. Attackers can achieve remote code execution on any user browsing the Bazaar by embedding XSS payloads in package displayName, description, or README fields, exploiting Electron's nodeIntegration setting to execute OS commands.

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 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 before v3.8.4 does not HTML-escape stored flashcard block content before interpolating it into the card-manager list markup. Block content returned by /api/riff/getRiffCards is inserted into a card item template in app/src/card/viewCards.ts and assigned to listElement.innerHTML, so content such as becomes an executable event-handler attribute. Because the SiYuan desktop (Electron) main window is created with nodeIntegration enabled and contextIsolation disabled, an administrator who opens the card manager on a workspace containing attacker-supplied flashcard content (for example introduced through contribution or import) executes the attacker's script in a privileged renderer, which can lead to arbitrary code execution on the host. The affected endpoint remains behind authentication and administrator-role checks; this is an untrusted-content-to-privileged-renderer issue, not an authorization bypass.

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.

SiYuan before 3.8.5 contains an information disclosure vulnerability that allows publish-mode readers to learn backlink block IDs and reference counts from password-protected and publish-disabled documents by querying a published document. Attackers can send POST requests to /api/block/getDocInfo or getDocsInfo for a published document ID to obtain refIDs and refCount of hidden referencing blocks, bypassing the publish confidentiality boundary.
