AI-suggested
Upgrade Siyuan Note to version 3.8.2 or later, where this authorization bypass vulnerability has been fixed. No other mitigation guidance is provided or necessary as the issue is resolved in the official patch.
Description
Siyuan before v3.8.2 fails to apply publish-access filtering to embedded blocks before rendering in the /api/export/preview and /api/lute/copyStdMarkdown endpoints. Attackers with reader access can retrieve the full rendered content of private, hidden, or publish-disabled blocks by accessing public documents containing embed queries that select those blocks.
Impact
An attacker with reader access can bypass intended access controls and view sensitive content that should be restricted, including private, hidden, or publish-disabled blocks. This could lead to unauthorized disclosure of confidential information.
