Summary
CVE-2026-69083 is a critical SQL injection vulnerability in SiYuan Note (siyuan-note/siyuan). The flaw resides in the asset-content search endpoint and allows unauthenticated users, or low-privileged publish reader tokens, to execute arbitrary SQL against the asset-content database, resulting in read, modification, or deletion of cross-notebook data. It is rated critical (CVSS v3.1 10.0).
Technical details
- Root cause: The
POST /api/search/fullTextSearchAssetContenthandler passes user input to a read-write database handle without proper safeguards. Two distinct flaws exist: raw SQL statements are executed without single-statement validation or read-only guards (unlike the siblingfullTextSearchBlockendpoint), and theREGEXPclause concatenates user input without escaping quotes, enabling SQL breakout. - Trigger conditions: The endpoint is reachable in publish mode with reader tokens, or when authentication is disabled.
- Attack vector: Network; no privileges or user interaction required.
- Impact: Arbitrary SQL execution on the asset-content database over a statement-stacking-capable driver, allowing an attacker to read, modify, or delete cross-notebook data (full confidentiality and integrity impact).
Affected software
- SiYuan Note (siyuan-note/siyuan) all versions before v3.7.3 (≤ v3.7.2).
Severity
- CVSS v3.1 base score: 10.0 (Critical)
- Vector:
CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:C/C:H/I:H/A:N - (CVSS v4.0: 9.9 Critical)
Mitigation and recommended actions
- Immediate: Upgrade to SiYuan v3.7.3 or later, which patches the vulnerability.
- If no patch can be applied: Restrict network access to the SiYuan instance and avoid exposing it to untrusted networks. Disable publish mode / anonymous reader access, and ensure authentication is enabled so the affected endpoint is not reachable by unauthenticated clients.
How IONIX identifies potentially affected assets
IONIX matches the following signals against data already collected when it crawled the asset; identifying the technology sends no request beyond that crawl.
