CVE ID : CVE-2026-23847
Published : Jan. 19, 2026, 8:15 p.m. | 43 minutes ago
Description : SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Versions prior to 3.5.4 are vulnerable to reflected cross-site scripting in /api/icon/getDynamicIcon due to unsanitized SVG input. The endpoint generates SVG images for text icons (type=8). The content query parameter is inserted directly into the SVG tag without XML escaping. Since the response Content-Type is image/svg+xml, injecting unescaped tags allows breaking the XML structure and executing JavaScript. Version 3.5.4 patches the issue.]
Severity: 2.1 | LOW
