SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. From 2.1.12 to before 3.7.0. SiYuan's Bazaar marketplace renders package author metadata from the public bazaar stage feed into HTML without escaping. In the desktop app this becomes stored XSS, and because SiYuan's Electron windows are created with nodeIntegration: true and contextIsolation: false, a successful payload can call Node.js APIs and execute code on the host. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.7.0, POST /api/tag/getTag is registered with model.CheckAuth only, omitting both model.CheckAdminRole and model.CheckReadonly, despite the handler performing a configuration write that is normally guarded by both. Any authenticated user — including publish-service RoleReader accounts and RoleEditor accounts on a read-only workspace — can call this endpoint with a sort argument to mutate model.Conf.Tag.Sort and trigger model.Conf.Save(), which atomically rewrites the entire workspace conf.json. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.7.0, SiYuan's Bazaar (community marketplace) renders the name and version fields of a package's plugin.json (and the equivalent theme.json / template.json / widget.json / icon.json) into the Settings → Marketplace UI without HTML escaping. The kernel-side helper sanitizePackageDisplayStrings in kernel/bazaar/package.go HTML-escapes only Author, DisplayName, and Description — Name and Version flow through to the renderer raw. The frontend at app/src/config/bazaar.ts substitutes them into HTML template strings via ${item.preferredName} / ${data.name} / v${data.version} and assigns the result to innerHTML. As a consequence, malicious HTML in either field is parsed and executed when a user opens the marketplace tab. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.7.0, SiYuan publish-mode Reader can mutate Conf and SQL index via 8 ungated APIs. POST /api/graph/getGraph, POST /api/graph/getLocalGraph, POST /api/sync/setSyncInterval, POST /api/storage/updateRecentDocViewTime, POST /api/storage/updateRecentDocCloseTime, POST /api/storage/updateRecentDocOpenTime, POST /api/storage/batchUpdateRecentDocCloseTime, and POST /api/search/updateEmbedBlock are registered with model.CheckAuth only, omitting both model.CheckAdminRole and model.CheckReadonly. Each of them writes server-side state, including atomic rewrites of <workspace>/conf/conf.json via model.Conf.Save(). Any caller whose JWT passes CheckAuth, including a publish-service RoleReader (the role assigned to anonymous publish visitors) and a RoleEditor against a workspace where Editor.ReadOnly = true, can hit them This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.6.5, SiYuan desktop renders notification messages as raw HTML inside an Electron renderer. The notification route POST /api/notification/pushMsg accepts a user-controlled msg value, forwards it through the backend broadcast layer, and the frontend inserts it into the DOM with insertAdjacentHTML(...) at message.ts. On desktop builds, this is not limited to ordinary XSS. Electron windows are created with nodeIntegration: true, contextIsolation: false, and webSecurity: false at main.js. As a result, JavaScript executed from the notification sink can directly access Node APIs and escalate to desktop code execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.6.5.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.6.5, the fix for CVE-2026-30869 only added a denylist check (IsSensitivePath) but did not address the root cause — a redundant url.PathUnescape() call in serveExport(). An authenticated attacker can use double URL encoding (%252e%252e) to traverse directories and read arbitrary workspace files including the full SQLite database (siyuan.db), kernel log, and all user documents. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.6.5.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. In versions 3.6.3 and prior, the /api/av/removeUnusedAttributeView endpoint constructs a filesystem path using the user-controlled id parameter without validation or path boundary enforcement. An attacker can inject path traversal sequences such as ../ into the id value to escape the intended directory and delete arbitrary .json files on the server, including global configuration files and workspace metadata. This issue has been fixed in version 3.6.4.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. In versions 3.6.3 and below, Mermaid diagrams are rendered with securityLevel set to "loose", and the resulting SVG is injected into the DOM via innerHTML. This allows attacker-controlled javascript: URLs in Mermaid code blocks to survive into the rendered output. On desktop builds using Electron, windows are created with nodeIntegration enabled and contextIsolation disabled, escalating the stored XSS to arbitrary code execution when a victim opens a note containing a malicious Mermaid block and clicks the rendered diagram node. This issue has been fixed in version 3.6.4.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. In versions 3.6.3 and below, the /api/av/removeUnusedAttributeView endpoint is protected only by generic authentication that accepts publish-service RoleReader tokens. The handler passes a caller-controlled id directly to a model function that unconditionally deletes the corresponding attribute view file from the workspace without verifying that the caller has write privileges or that the target attribute view is actually unused. An authenticated publish-service reader can permanently delete arbitrary attribute view definitions by extracting publicly exposed data-av-id values from published content, causing breakage of database views and workspace rendering until manually restored. This issue has been fixed in version 3.6.4.

SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. In versions 3.6.1 through 3.6.3, a prior fix for XSS in bazaar README rendering (incomplete fix for CVE-2026-33066) enabled the Lute HTML sanitizer, but the sanitizer does not block iframe tags, and its URL-prefix blocklist does not effectively filter srcdoc attributes which contain raw HTML rather than URLs. A malicious bazaar package author can include an iframe with a srcdoc attribute containing embedded scripts in their README. When other users view the package in SiYuan's marketplace UI, the payload executes in the Electron context with full application privileges, enabling arbitrary code execution on the user's machine. This issue has been fixed in version 3.6.4.
