CVE-2026-74802

N/A 0 PoC AVAILABLE

Published 2026-08-17 · Last modified 2026-08-17

SiYuan versions before 3.7.4 contain a cross-site WebSocket hijacking vulnerability in the admin-only /ws/network/proxy endpoint that explicitly disables origin validation by setting CheckOrigin to unconditionally return true. Attackers can craft malicious webpages that establish WebSocket connections to this endpoint and direct the SiYuan kernel process to proxy arbitrary network traffic to attacker-chosen targets, enabling authenticated network pivoting through the victim's machine.

EXPLOIT AVAILABLE

Public exploit or PoC code exists. Modeled probability is still low, but the barrier to attack is reduced — watch closely.
