SQL Injection in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-69084)

Summary

SQL injection in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-69084). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via CheckAuth. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.0.0-20260721002947-23a17d44b5f3 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

CVE: This vulnerability corresponds to CVE-2026-69084.

Summary

The /api/search/searchEmbedBlock endpoint passes a client-supplied SQL statement verbatim to the database with no validation. The endpoint is gated by CheckAuth only reachable by the publish RoleReader token, and by the anonymous account when Publish.Auth.Enable is false. The statement runs on the main read-write siyuan.db handle through a driver that executes stacked statements, with no single-statement or read-only guard. An unauthenticated request can therefore execute arbitrary SQL reading and writing content across all cleartext notebooks.

Unlike SQL injection into a fixed query, this endpoint accepts a full SQL statement by design and simply fails to restrict who may call it or what the statement may do.

Details

Data flow verbatim, unvalidated:

  • searchEmbedBlock (kernel/api/search.go): stmt := arg["stmt"].(string) passed directly to model.SearchEmbedBlock(stmt, …). No validation.
  • SearchEmbedBlock → SearchEmbedBlockInBox → sql.SelectBlocksRawStmtNoParse(stmt, …) → selectBlocksRawStmt → query(stmt).
  • query() (kernel/sql/database.go) calls db.Query(stmt) on the global siyuan.db handle.

Missing guards. The comparable endpoints enforce restrictions this one omits:

  • /api/query/sql runs CheckSingleStatement (all modes) and CheckReadonlyStatement (readonly mode) and is route-gated `CheckAuth + Che…

🔥 Severity

Severity: Critical (CVSS 10.0/10). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 0.0.0-20260721002947-23a17d44b5f3.

🛡️ Workaround

Until the patch is applied: disable the affected feature, apply WAF rules, or restrict access via network ACLs.

🔍 Detection

Search webserver/proxy logs for unusual request patterns matching this CVE's known IOCs. Run grep -r 'github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel' . against your dependency files (package-lock.json, requirements.txt, go.sum) to find affected services.

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 0.0.0-20260721002947-23a17d44b5f3

    ステージング環境で 0.0.0-20260721002947-23a17d44b5f3 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。
