CVE-2026-68584 is a high-severity flaw (CVSS 8.6) affecting affected software. Below: why it ranks where it does, which versions are affected, what to do, and the exact commands.
SiYuan versions before v3.7.3 contain an authentication bypass vulnerability in publish mode where content-returning endpoints getHeadingChildrenDOM, getHeading*Transaction, and getBacklinkDoc perform no password check despite protecting the primary getDoc endpoint. Anonymous attackers can retrieve full content of password-protected documents by obtaining internal block IDs from reader-accessible endpoints and calling unprotected content endpoint
