8.8High
CVE-2026-92985
SiYuan versions before 3.8.4 fail to escape bookmark labels imported from notebook files when rendering them in the dock tree. Attackers can craft malicious .sy notebook files with unescaped HTML in bookmark attributes that execute scripts in the Electron renderer with access to child_process for command execution.
