CVE-2026-33203

siyuan-note siyuan

SiYuan has an Unauthenticated WebSocket DoS via Auth Keepalive Bypass

CVSS 3.1
7.5High

Official description

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to version 3.6.2, the SiYuan kernel WebSocket server accepts unauthenticated connections when a specific "auth keepalive" query parameter is present. After connection, incoming messages are parsed using unchecked type assertions on attacker-controlled JSON. A remote attacker can send malformed messages that trigger a runtime panic, potentially crashing the kernel process and causing denial of service. Version 3.6.2 fixes the issue.
