What is CVE-2026-45375?

SiYuan, an open-source personal knowledge management system, contains a vulnerability in its Bazaar marketplace feature. Prior to version 3.7.0, the application fails to properly escape the name and version fields of a package's JSON files, exposing users to potential cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. This occurs when an attacker injects malicious HTML within the name or version fields, allowing the crafted content to be executed in the user's browser when they access the marketplace tab. This flaw underscores the importance of robust input validation and output encoding.
