SiYuan: The reference filter for getRefIDs checks visibility but not the password tier, disclosing that password-protected documents reference a given block
### Summary `/api/block/getRefIDs` filters its results for reader roles through a helper that checks only the visibility tiers. The password tier is not checked, because the helper does not receive the request context and therefore cannot evaluate the publish auth cookie. A reader who has not entered a document's publish password learns that the document references a given block. A function ten lines away in the same file does perform the full check, on the same input type. ### Details **Route,** identical at `eef105683` (`kernel/api/router.go:235`) and dev `a7ae96ce` (`:245`): ```go ginServer.Handle("POST", "/api/block/getRefIDs", model.CheckAuth, getRefIDs) ``` No `CheckReadonly`, no `CheckAdminRole`. **The filter chain.** `getRefIDs` (`kernel/api/block.go:631`) checks `isEncryptedNotebookDeniedForPublish`, calls `model.GetBlockRefsInBox`, then for read-only roles: ```go publishIgnore := model.GetInvisiblePublishAccess(publishAccess) refDefs, originalRefBlockIDs = model.FilterRefDefsByPublishIgnore(publishIgnore, refDefs) ``` `FilterRefDefsByPublishIgnore` (`kernel/model/publish_access.go:1324`) collects the reference and definition identifiers, resolves their block trees, and delegates the decision to `FilterBlockTreesByPublishIgnore` (`:1314`), whose entire body is: ```go for id, bt := range bts { if CheckPathAccessableByPublishIgnore(bt.BoxID, bt.Path, publishIgnore) { ret[id] = bt } } ``` Inside that helper, `CheckPublishAuthCookie`, `GetPathPasswordByPublishAccess`, `c
