AI-suggested
A patch is available in version 0.0.0-20260808051406-3542530c505f that addresses this issue. Users should upgrade to this fixed version. The vendor advisory recommends either replicating the full HTTP API blocklist in the MCP tool's resolvePath() function or restricting the tool's scope to WorkspaceDir/temp/siyuan/*.log for read operations and disabling write/delete/rename/copy unless the caller is Administrator. Applying the patch or these scope restrictions will mitigate the vulnerability.
Description
The MCP file tool in SiYuan note-taking software has an incomplete blocklist for sensitive paths compared to the HTTP file API it claims to align with. This discrepancy allows an authenticated Administrator-level MCP client to read sensitive files such as data/.siyuan/publishAccess.json, exposing plaintext passwords that protect publish-mode shared notebooks and documents. Other sensitive paths blocked by the HTTP API remain accessible via the MCP tool. This issue persists despite prior remediation for a related vulnerability and represents a scope restriction failure in the MCP tool's path resolution logic.
