CVE-2026-29183

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system.

Published Mar 6, 2026 · updated Jun 17, 2026 · b3log siyuan

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to version 3.5.9, an unauthenticated reflected XSS vulnerability exists in the dynamic icon API endpoint "GET /api/icon/getDynamicIcon" when type=8, attacker-controlled content is embedded into SVG output without escaping. Because the endpoint is unauthenticated and returns image/svg+xml, a crafted URL can inject executable SVG/HTML event handlers (for example onerror) and run JavaScript in the SiYuan web origin. This can be chained to perform authenticated API actions and exfiltrate sensitive data when a logged-in user opens the malicious link. This issue has been patched in version 3.5.9.
