AI-suggested

A fix is available in SiYuan version 3.8.4. Users should upgrade to version 3.8.4 or later to remediate this vulnerability. No additional mitigation steps are indicated beyond applying the official update.

Description

SiYuan versions before v3.8.4 contain a path traversal vulnerability in the exportBrowserHTML endpoint that allows authenticated administrators to write arbitrary HTML content to index.html outside the workspace directory. Attackers can supply a folder parameter with directory traversal sequences to escape the export directory and overwrite index.html in any pre-existing kernel-writable location, enabling stored XSS or workspace defacement.
