Summary

Vulnerability in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-68584). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via getDoc. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.0.0-20260721020826-2d069dce84a2 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

CVE: This vulnerability corresponds to CVE-2026-68584.

Summary

SiYuan's publish mode defines a "protected" access level: a document that is publicly listed but requires a password to read (per the product's own UI help text, protected = "Publicly visible, requires password to access"). The password is enforced on the primary content path (getDoc, via FilterContentByPublishAccess).

Several other content-returning endpoints getHeadingChildrenDOM, getHeadingDeleteTransaction/getHeadingLevelTransaction/ getHeadingInsertTransaction, and getBacklinkDoc/getBackmentionDoc return rendered block DOM with no password check at all. Combined with reader-reachable endpoints that leak a protected document's internal block IDs, an anonymous reader can retrieve the full body of a password-protected document without the password. This has been reproduced end-to-end on a live instance.

Details

The password control and where it is enforced. Publish access has five levels encoded in visible/password/disable: public, protected (password), hidden, private (password), forbidden. getDoc correctly enforces the password for protected/private documents via FilterContentByPublishAccess. The bug is that other content endpoints do not.

Content endpoints with no password check (all CheckAuth-only):

  • getHeadingChildrenDOM returns rendered DOM of a heading subtree.
  • getHeadingDeleteTransaction/`g…

Response actions

Concrete steps and command examples for SOC/SRE teams to execute in order

  1. 1
    Identify exposure identify
    grep -r 'github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel' . | grep -v node_modules

    リポジトリと本番環境の依存ファイル (package-lock.json / requirements.txt / go.sum / Gemfile.lock 等) で github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel を grep し、稼働しているサービス・バージョンを把握する。

  2. 2
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel to 0.0.0-20260721020826-2d069dce84a2

    ステージング環境で 0.0.0-20260721020826-2d069dce84a2 に上げて回帰テスト → 本番反映。回帰テストはアプリの主要ハッピーパスを含めること。

  3. 3
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Confirm patched version is live in production

    パッチ適用後、ステージングで PoC または同等の悪用パターンを再現して脆弱性が閉じたことを確認。本番ではアクセスログ・WAF でアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
