CVE-2026-73046

CRITICAL9.8

Published 2026-08-15 · Source disclosure@vulncheck.com

Description

SiYuan before v3.7.4 improperly restricts excessive authentication attempts in the CheckAuth() middleware. The HTTP Basic Authentication branch, which guards nearly the entire /api/* surface, accepts the workspace access code (Conf.AccessAuthCode) as the Basic Auth password but never consults the CAPTCHA/lockout gate or increments the failure counter used by the cookie/session login path. This allows unauthenticated remote attackers to brute-force the admin access code with unlimited automated requests and obtain full RoleAdministrator access to the kernel. A secondary weakness exists because the access code is compared using a non-constant-time string comparison.

CVE-2026-73052
SiYuan before v3.7.4 stores attribute-view field names without HTML escaping and interpolates them directly into option elements via innerHTML in the sort menu. Attackers can inject markup by renaming a database field to execute arbitrary JavaScript when users open the sort menu, with Node integration enabled in the desktop client enabling code execution.

CVE-2026-73044
SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 fail to validate or escape table column width values, allowing stored cross-site scripting injection into style attributes. Attackers can inject malicious payloads through the setAttrViewColWidth API that break out of style attributes and inject event handlers on every table cell, executing arbitrary code in the Electron renderer with Node integration enabled.
