CVE-2026-45371 Details
Description
SiYuan is an open-source personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.7.0, SiYuan publish-mode Reader can mutate Conf and SQL index via 8 ungated APIs. POST /api/graph/getGraph, POST /api/graph/getLocalGraph, POST /api/sync/setSyncInterval, POST /api/storage/updateRecentDocViewTime, POST /api/storage/updateRecentDocCloseTime, POST /api/storage/updateRecentDocOpenTime, POST /api/storage/batchUpdateRecentDocCloseTime, and POST /api/search/updateEmbedBlock are registered with model.CheckAuth only, omitting both model.CheckAdminRole and model.CheckReadonly. Each of them writes server-side state, including atomic rewrites of <workspace>/conf/conf.json via model.Conf.Save(). Any caller whose JWT passes CheckAuth, including a publish-service RoleReader (the role assigned to anonymous publish visitors) and a RoleEditor against a workspace where Editor.ReadOnly = true, can hit them This vulnerability is fixed in 3.7.0.
A vulnerability exists in SiYuan versions through 3.6.5, allowing the publish-mode Reader to unauthorizedly modify configuration and SQL index data via eight unprotected APIs. These APIs, which include endpoints for graph management, synchronization settings, and document view times, are only authenticated with model.CheckAuth. This oversight enables any user with a valid JWT, including anonymous publish visitors, to alter server-side state. The vulnerability arises from the failure to implement necessary administrative and read-only checks, leaving critical application data exposed to unauthorized modifications.
Users should update to SiYuan version 3.7.0, where this vulnerability has been addressed.
