Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
Affected: SiYuan's Go kernel (github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel) before 0.0.0-20260721020826-2d069dce84a2, which is also the fixed version. In publish mode, several endpoints that return rendered block content (getHeadingChildrenDOM, the getHeading*Transaction handlers, getBacklinkDoc and getBackmentionDoc) skip the password check that protects password-protected documents. An anonymous reader, or any publish reader, can obtain block IDs from other endpoints and then read the full body of a protected document without its password. Upgrade to 0.0.0-20260721020826-2d069dce84a2 or later.
