## What is CVE-2026-32747?

CVE-2026-32747 is a medium-severity path traversal vulnerability in B3log Siyuan, published on 19 Mar 2026. An attacker needs administrator access to exploit it, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. In versions 3.6.0 and below, the globalCopyFiles API  eads source files using filepath.Abs() with no workspace boundary check, relying solely on util.IsSensitivePath() whose blocklist omits /proc/, /run/secrets/, and home directory dotfiles. An admin can copy /proc/1/environ or Docker secrets into the workspace and read them via the standard file API. An admin can exfiltrate any file readable by the SiYuan process that falls outside the incomplete blocklist. In containerized deployments this includes all injected secrets and environment variables - a common pattern for passing credentials to containers. The exfiltrated files are then accessible via the standard workspace file API and persist until manually deleted. This issue has been fixed in version 3.6.1.

Weakness: CWE-22 (Improper Limitation of a Pathname to a Restricted Directory), CWE-184 (Incomplete List of Disallowed Inputs)

Affected packages and fixed versions:
- github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (Go): affected all versions; no fix listed
- github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (Go): affected all versions up to 0.0.0-20260313024916-fd6526133bb3; no fix listed

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
