SQL Injection in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-69085)
Summary
SQL injection in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-69085). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via POST /api/notebook/lsNotebooks. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.0.0-20260721043339-eef10568384e or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
The /api/filetree/searchDocs endpoint concatenates the caller-supplied search keyword directly into a SQL statement with no escaping and no parameter binding. 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 resulting statement runs on a read-write SQLite handle through a driver that executes stacked (;-separated) statements, against the global blocks table spanning all cleartext notebooks. An unauthenticated request can therefore read and write database content across every non-encrypted notebook on the instance.
