Description
Summary
/ws/network/proxy is an admin-only WebSocket forward-proxy endpoint (target URL and headers fully attacker-specifiable via query parameters). Its websocket.Upgrader explicitly overrides CheckOrigin to unconditionally return true — disabling the origin validation that the gorilla/websocket library otherwise enforces by default. WebSocket handshake requests are not subject to CORS preflight at all (unlike fetch/XHR), so origin validation for WebSocket endpoints has to be done deliberately by the server; here it has been deliberately turned off instead. Combined with the endpoint's own query-parameter-driven proxy target, this is a textbook Cross-Site WebSocket Hijacking (CSWSH) primitive on a capability that amounts to an authenticated network pivot through the SiYuan kernel process.
Details

upgrader := websocket.Upgrader{
CheckOrigin: func(r *http.Request) bool { return true },

clientConn, upgradeErr := upgrader.Upgrade(c.Writer, c.Request, upgradeHeaders)
Route registration (admin-role-gated):

The proxy target is fully attacker-controllable via query parameters, decoded and dialed direc…
