Updated

Siyuan before v3.8.2 fails to apply publish-access filtering to embedded blocks before rendering in the /api/export/preview and /api/lute/copyStdMarkdown endpoints. Attackers with reader access can retrieve the full rendered content of private, hidden, or publish-disabled blocks by accessing public documents containing embed queries that select those blocks.

Frequently Asked Questions

1

Who can exploit this issue?

An attacker needs reader access and access to a public document containing an embed query that selects private, hidden, or publish-disabled blocks. No user interaction is required.

2

Which interfaces expose the unfiltered content?

The affected interfaces are /api/export/preview and /api/lute/copyStdMarkdown. They render embedded blocks without applying publish-access filtering.

3

What should be prioritized for remediation?

Upgrade Siyuan to v3.8.2 or later. Until then, review public documents for embed queries that may select private, hidden, or publish-disabled blocks and restrict reader access where possible.
