CVE-2026-31807: SiYuan has a SVG Sanitizer Bypass via `<animate>` Element — Unauthenticated XSS

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 25/100)

  • A ready-made attack module is public (Nuclei); exploiting it takes no special expertise.
  • Public proof-of-concept code exists (Exploit-DB / GitHub); there is no record of exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.49% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Anyone who can reach it over the internet can trigger it. No account or password is required. No special conditions are required; it is repeatable.
  • According to CISA the attack is automatable: targets can be found by mass scanning.
  • Fixed version: github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (Go) 0.0.0-20260310025236-297bd526708f.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel (Go) 0.0.0-20260310025236-297bd526708f or later.

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

SiYuan is a personal knowledge management system. Prior to 3.5.10, SiYuan's SVG sanitizer (SanitizeSVG) blocks dangerous elements (<script>, <iframe>, <foreignobject>) and removes on* event handlers and javascript: in href attributes. However, it does NOT block SVG animation elements (<animate>, <set>) which can dynamically set attributes to dangerous values at runtime, bypassing the static sanitization. This allows an attacker to inject executable JavaScript into the unauthenticated /api/icon/getDynamicIcon endpoint (type=8), creating a reflected XSS. This is a bypass of the fix for CVE-2026-29183 (fixed in v3.5.9). This vulnerability is fixed in v3.5.10.
