CVE-2026-69085: Improper Neutralization of Special Elements used in an SQL Command ('SQL Injection') in siyuan-note siyuan

0
Critical
Published: 08/03/2026 (08/03/2026, 13:20:40 UTC)
Source: CVE Database V5
Vendor/Project: siyuan-note
Product: siyuan

Description

SiYuan before v3.7.3 contains a SQL injection vulnerability in the /api/filetree/searchDocs endpoint, where the caller-supplied keyword parameter is concatenated directly into SQL statements with no escaping or parameter binding. The endpoint is reachable by a publish RoleReader token, or unauthenticated when publish mode is enabled with Publish.Auth.Enable set to false. Because the statement executes on a read-write SQLite handle via a driver that supports stacked (semicolon-separated) statements, an attacker can read and modify database content across all cleartext (non-encrypted) notebooks on the instance.

Technical Analysis

CVE-2026-69085 describes a SQL injection vulnerability in SiYuan note-taking software before version 3.7.3. The vulnerability exists in the /api/filetree/searchDocs endpoint where the keyword parameter is concatenated directly into SQL queries without escaping or parameter binding. The endpoint can be accessed with a publish RoleReader token or unauthenticated if publish mode is enabled without authentication. Because the underlying SQLite driver supports stacked SQL statements on a read-write handle, an attacker can execute arbitrary SQL commands to read and modify database content across all unencrypted notebooks on the instance.

Potential Impact

Successful exploitation allows an attacker with minimal or no privileges to execute arbitrary SQL commands on the application's database. This can lead to unauthorized reading and modification of all cleartext notebook data stored in the database, compromising confidentiality and integrity of user data. The vulnerability has a CVSS 4.0 base score of 9.9, indicating critical severity with network attack vector, no privileges required, and no user interaction needed.

Mitigation Recommendations

Patch status is not yet confirmed — check the vendor advisory for current remediation guidance. Until an official fix is available, restrict or disable publish mode or ensure Publish.Auth.Enable is set to true to require authentication. Avoid exposing the vulnerable endpoint to untrusted users. Monitor vendor channels for updates and apply official patches once released.
