Vulnerability in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-73609)
Summary
Vulnerability in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (CVE-2026-73609). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure. Exploitable via CheckAuth. Mitigation: upgrade to 0.0.0-20260812083335-251596fc0de2 or later.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
Summary
/api/attr/getBookmarkLabels is registered with CheckAuth only and applies no filtering of any kind. It runs a scan of the entire blocks table and returns the distinct set of every bookmark label in the workspace. An anonymous reader in publish mode receives the author's complete bookmark vocabulary, regardless of whether the bookmarked blocks live in published, hidden, password-protected or forbidden documents.
The adjacent endpoint that returns bookmarks with their blocks does filter, and does so in a way that makes the intended rule explicit: it drops a label entirely when no accessible block carries it.
Details
Route. kernel/api/router.go:297 on master, :300 on the development branch:
ginServer.Handle("POST", "/api/attr/getBookmarkLabels", model.CheckAuth, getBookmarkLabels)
No CheckAdminRole, no CheckReadonly. Reachable by the publish RoleReader token and anonymously when Publish.Auth.Enable is false.
The handler (kernel/api/attr.go) is a single line:
ret.Data = model.BookmarkLabels()
which reaches kernel/model/bookmark.go:184 and then sql.QueryBookmarkLabels() at kernel/sql/block_query.go:315:
sqlStmt := "SELECT * FROM blocks WHERE ial LIKE ?" // "%bookmark=%"
// collect distinct ialAttr(block.IAL, "bookmark") into a set, sort, return
There is no notebook scoping, no path scoping, no publish-access check and no filter function anywhere on the path. Every block in the workspace…
