CVE-2026-44670 Details
Description
SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.7.0, the kernel stores Attribute View (AV / database) names without any HTML escape, then a render template uses raw strings.ReplaceAll(tpl, "${avName}", nodeAvName) to embed the name in HTML before pushing to all clients via WebSocket. Three independent client paths (render.ts:120 → outerHTML, Title.ts:401 → innerHTML, transaction.ts:559 → innerHTML) consume the value without escaping. Because the main BrowserWindow runs nodeIntegration:true, contextIsolation:false, webSecurity:false (app/electron/main.js:407-411), HTML injection in the renderer becomes Node.js code execution. This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.
A stored cross-site scripting vulnerability has been identified in SiYuan versions prior to 3.7.0. The issue arises because the application saves Attribute View names without proper HTML escaping. When these names are later rendered and sent to clients via WebSocket, they are consumed by the application without escaping, creating an opportunity for HTML injection. This injection is particularly dangerous because it can be executed as Node.js code in the Electron renderer, leading to remote code execution.
Users can update to SiYuan version 3.7.0 or later, where this vulnerability has been fixed.
