description

On Windows, SiYuan versions 3.5.4 through 3.8.6 can incorrectly allow access to protected local paths during Markdown import. An authenticated API caller may expose sensitive workspace files through assets served to other clients. Exploitation requires access to the affected import API on a vulnerable Windows deployment.

mitigation

Upgrade SiYuan to version 3.8.7 or later. Until upgraded, restrict authenticated access to the import API and limit exposure of served assets.

fixed in v3.8.7
