What is CVE-2026-34449?

CVE-2026-34449 is a critical code injection vulnerability in B3log Siyuan, published on 31 Mar 2026. An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, and only if a user opens a file or follows a link.

Official description

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to version 3.6.2, a malicious website can achieve Remote Code Execution (RCE) on any desktop running SiYuan by exploiting the permissive CORS policy (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: * + Access-Control-Allow-Private-Network: true) to inject a JavaScript snippet via the API. The injected snippet executes in Electron's Node.js context with full OS access the next time the user opens SiYuan's UI. No user interaction is required beyond visiting the malicious website while SiYuan is running. This issue has been patched in version 3.6.2.

Weakness: CWE-942
