CVE-2026-66394 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.7) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
SiYuan before v3.7.3 contains stored and reflected cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in SVG sanitization that allows authenticated attackers to execute scripts by bypassing the HTML parser-based cleaner. Attackers can hide script tags within desc, style, or noscript elements which the HTML parser treats as raw text but browsers interpret as executable SVG content when served as image/svg+xml, enabling script execution in the application origin
Why this priority
- High severity
- CISA SSVC: public proof of concept
A fixed release or distro patch exists.
