Vulnerability in SiYuan (CVE-2026-87808)

Summary

Vulnerability in SiYuan (CVE-2026-87808). Confidential information can be exposed externally. Exploitable via POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock. Mitigation: upgrade to 3.8.2 or later.

Original description

The description as published by the source.

SiYuan versions <= 3.8.1 contain an incomplete fix for CVE-2026-32767 (GHSA-j7wh-x834-p3r7). The prior fix (commit d5e2d0bc) added an administrator check for SQL mode (method=2) in POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock, but the endpoint still does not enforce the application's read-only boundary: for method=2 it forwards caller-supplied SQL to the blocks database query path without calling model.CheckReadonly or CheckReadonlyStatementInBox. As a result, when a workspace runs in read-only mode (--readonly=true), an authenticated administrator can submit arbitrary SQL through /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock and obtain raw read access to the blocks database, even though the dedicated /api/query/sql endpoint is blocked in that mode. Fixed in v3.8.2.

❓ What is the problem

A vulnerability (CWE-693) exists in SiYuan. Attackers reach the vulnerable code path via POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock.

📍 Affected scope

Check the vendor advisory for the affected versions of SiYuan. Attack surface: POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock.

🔥 Severity

Severity: Medium (CVSS 4.9/10). Confidential information can be exposed externally.

🔧 How to fix

Update to 3.8.2.

🛡️ 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 POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock requests with malformed payloads or SQL meta-characters. Run grep -r 'SiYuan' . 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 'SiYuan' . | 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 SiYuan 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
    Hunt for indicators of compromise detect
    grep 'POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock' /var/log/nginx/access.log | grep -E '(unusual_payload|sqli_pattern)'

    アクセスログで POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock への異常なリクエスト (不正な認証ヘッダ・SQLメタ文字)を過去 30〜90日分捜索。WAF/SIEM があれば該当パスのアラート発火履歴を確認。

  3. 3
    Apply patch patch
    Upgrade SiYuan to 3.8.2

    ステージング環境で 3.8.2 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と、Step 2 で見つけた異常検知の続報チェックを含めること。

  4. 4
    Post-deployment verification verify
    Replay attack against POST /api/search/fullTextSearchBlock on staging to confirm patch closes the vector

    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 Step 2 と同じログクエリでアラート再発が無いか継続監視。
