CVE-2026-33194

Summary

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to version 3.6.2, the IsSensitivePath() function in kernel/util/path.go uses a denylist approach that was recently expanded (GHSA-h5vh-m7fg-w5h6, commit 9914fd1) but remains incomplete. Multiple security-relevant Linux directories are not blocked, including /opt (application data), /usr (local configs/binaries), /home (other users), /mnt and /media (mounted volumes). The globalCopyFiles and importStdMd endpoints rely on IsSensitivePath as their primary defense against reading files outside the workspace. Version 3.6.2 contains an updated fix.
