Machine-written summary
Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.
SiYuan's kernel (Go package github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel) before 0.0.0-20260726020813-a25c2dd06aae lets anonymous publish-mode readers list encrypted notebooks and retrieve their fully decrypted document content while the notebook is unlocked, because the publish access check defaults to allowing any notebook not explicitly listed. An attacker needs only publish-mode access, with no password or key material; the exposure lasts while the legitimate user has the notebook open. Upgrade to 0.0.0-20260726020813-a25c2dd06aae or later. No workaround is listed.
