What is CVE-2026-33067?

The SiYuan personal knowledge management system exposes a significant security risk due to improper handling of package metadata fields. In versions 3.6.0 and earlier, these fields are rendered using template literals without proper HTML escaping, allowing attackers to inject arbitrary HTML or JavaScript. This vulnerability can lead to complete remote code execution on the victim's operating system when the Bazaar page is accessed, due to SiYuan's Electron configuration settings that enable nodeIntegration: true and disable contextIsolation. This issue underscores the importance of security practices in template rendering and input sanitization. A patch is available in version 3.6.1, which addresses this vulnerability.
