9.1 CRITICAL

Network-reachable API but requires admin (PR:H); traversal escapes the app directory to affect the host OS, so scope changes to S:C with full write/delete leading to RCE-grade C/I/A:H.

CRITICAL 9.4

DescriptionCVE.org

SiYuan before v3.7.4 fails to validate the packageName parameter in Bazaar install and uninstall endpoints, allowing authenticated administrators to perform path traversal via directory traversal sequences. Attackers with admin access can write arbitrary files to any location via install operations or recursively delete directories via uninstall operations by supplying crafted packageName values.

AnalysisAI

Arbitrary file write and recursive directory deletion in SiYuan note-taking application before v3.7.4 stems from missing validation of the packageName parameter in the Bazaar marketplace install and uninstall endpoints. An authenticated administrator can supply directory-traversal sequences to write files to any filesystem location (install) or recursively delete arbitrary directories (uninstall), enabling remote code execution and destructive impact. …

Attack ChainAIDerived

Hypothetical attack flow derived from CVE metadata

Access
Obtain admin credentials for SiYuan
Delivery
Reach Bazaar install/uninstall API
Exploit
Submit packageName with ../ traversal
Execution
Write file outside Bazaar dir
Persist
Trigger code execution or delete directories
Impact
Host compromise or destructive DoS

Vulnerability AssessmentAI

Exploitation Requires an authenticated administrator session on the target SiYuan instance (CVSS PR:H) and network reachability to its HTTP API; exploitation is performed by sending crafted packageName values containing directory-traversal sequences to the Bazaar install (arbitrary file write) or uninstall (recursive directory delete) endpoints. … Additional conditions and limiting factors are described in the full assessment.
Risk Assessment The CVSS 4.0 score of 9.4 (AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N with high vulnerable- and subsequent-system impact) reflects that exploitation is network-borne and low-complexity but gated behind PR:H - the attacker must already hold administrator privileges on the SiYuan instance. … Full risk analysis with EPSS, KEV, and SSVC signal comparison available after sign-in.
Exploit Scenario An attacker who has obtained SiYuan administrator credentials (e.g., via phishing, credential reuse, or an exposed default/weak login) sends a crafted Bazaar install request whose packageName contains '../' sequences, writing a malicious file such as a shell startup script, cron entry, or web-served payload to a sensitive location to achieve code execution. Alternatively, they call the uninstall endpoint with a traversal path to recursively delete critical directories, causing destructive denial of service. …
Remediation Upgrade to SiYuan v3.7.4 or later, which contains the fix (Vendor-released patch: v3.7.4). … Detailed patch versions, workarounds, and compensating controls in full report.

Recommended ActionAI

Within 24 hours, inventory all SiYuan deployments and immediately restrict administrator account access to only essential personnel, disabling Bazaar marketplace functionality at the application level if possible. …
