SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the /api/block/getRefIDs endpoint that fails to check password-protected document tiers. Unauthenticated readers can discover that password-protected documents reference specific blocks and obtain block identifiers without entering the document password.

SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the getUniqueFilename endpoint that allows anonymous readers to probe filesystem existence without validation or confinement. Attackers can supply arbitrary absolute paths to determine whether files and directories exist on the host, enabling reconnaissance of the filesystem layout and installed software.

SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the /api/storage/getOutlineStorage endpoint that performs no authorization checks. Attackers can retrieve outline state including heading identifiers for any document by supplying its identifier, even for documents forbidden to the requester.

SiYuan before v3.7.4 contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the local storage filter that returns the administrator's entire storage map with only three keys sanitized. Unauthenticated attackers or publish readers can retrieve closed-tab history, search keywords, private document identifiers, and expanded folder paths by calling the getLocalStorage endpoint.

SiYuan's development branch (endpoint introduced by commit 9b8e8956f, not present in v3.7.3 or master, patched in v3.7.4) contains a missing-authorization vulnerability in the /api/av/getAttributeViewSearchTarget endpoint. The route is registered with CheckAuth only and performs no authorization checks (no CheckReadonly, no publish-access or encrypted-notebook gating). Given a database identifier taken from a published page and a keyword, an anonymous reader can query the endpoint to retrieve matching database row content, including rows that publish filters (FilterAttributeViewByPublishAccess) would otherwise withhold. No released stable version is affected.

siyuan versions before v3.7.4 expose the session cookie signing key through the /api/system/getConf endpoint to unauthenticated users in publish mode. Attackers can retrieve the CookieKey value and forge valid session cookies to impersonate users or gain administrative access.

SiYuan before v3.7.4 contains an access control bypass vulnerability where static-file routes in the server mux bypass publish-access controls enforced on the REST API. Attackers with publish reader tokens or anonymous access in disabled-auth mode can read templates, snippets, and export artifacts by directly accessing static routes that lack the same restrictions as their REST API counterparts.

SiYuan versions <= v3.7.2 (patched in v3.7.4) contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in the kernel's CheckAuth function, which grants the administrator role (RoleAdministrator) to any request whose RemoteAddr is loopback (127.0.0.1) for a specific set of endpoints (including /api/system/exit, getNetwork, getWorkspaceInfo, /assets/*, and /export/*). These localhost bypasses sit outside the access auth code gate, so they apply even when an access auth code is configured. Because the fixed-port reverse proxy forwards requests to the kernel over loopback without injecting an authentication token and does not configure trusted proxies, a request forwarded through this proxy reaches the kernel with RemoteAddr = 127.0.0.1. If the fixed-port proxy is bound to a network interface, this could allow a remote unauthenticated attacker to obtain admin access on the affected endpoints; however, per the advisory this remote forwarding behavior was established only by code inspection and was not reproduced end-to-end.

SiYuan v3.7.4-alpha.1 (a pre-release; the endpoint does not exist in stable v3.7.3 or earlier) contains an information disclosure vulnerability in the /api/av/getAttributeViewFieldViews endpoint. The route is registered with CheckAuth only and applies no publish-access filtering, so reader-role callers can retrieve the complete database view structure — every view's name, icon, layout type, and per-field Hidden flag — for any database whose avID is supplied, regardless of authorization. The issue was introduced by commit acfc02ee8 and fixed in v3.7.4.

SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain an information disclosure vulnerability in the resolveAssetPath endpoint that returns absolute filesystem paths unmodified to CheckAuth-only requests. Attackers can harvest relative asset paths from published documents and submit them to resolveAssetPath to obtain the server's absolute workspace path, disclosing the operating-system username and installation layout.
