CVE-2026-85580 Details
Description
SiYuan versions before v3.8.2 contain a path guard bypass vulnerability in the MCP file-access handler that uses case-sensitive matching on Linux filesystems. Attackers can read the protected publishAccess.json file by requesting case-variant paths like PublishAccess.json to disclose sensitive publish-access configuration and metadata.
A path guard bypass vulnerability has been identified in SiYuan versions prior to 3.8.2. This vulnerability resides in the MCP file-access handler, which applies case-sensitive matching on Linux filesystems. Attackers can exploit this flaw to read the protected publishAccess.json file by requesting case-variant paths, thereby disclosing sensitive publish-access configuration and metadata.
Users are advised to update to SiYuan version 3.8.2 or later, where this vulnerability has been patched. Additionally, it is recommended to canonicalize paths and compare protected basenames using the appropriate case semantics for the platform. Implementing Linux-specific regression tests for case variants and symlinked parents can also help prevent similar vulnerabilities in the future.
