AI-suggested

If you cannot patch yet, users should avoid running untrusted content in the SiYuan app, especially with nodeIntegration enabled. Disabling nodeIntegration in the Electron app configuration can mitigate the risk by preventing injected scripts from accessing Node.js APIs.

Description

SiYuan note-taking application versions 3.7.0 up to but not including 3.8.4 contain a stored cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability. This flaw occurs in the gallery and kanban database renderers where field descriptions are not properly escaped in aria-label attributes. In the Electron desktop app with nodeIntegration enabled, this allows attackers to inject JavaScript that can execute arbitrary commands with user privileges via Node.js child_process APIs. The vulnerability has a high severity score of 8.6.
