CVE-2026-74905 siyuan-note CVE debrief
AI-assisted PatchSiren debrief based on the supplied source corpus. The CVE record was published on 2026-08-18T12:19:30.780Z and has not been modified since then. The NVD entry is currently Deferred. The SiYuan application before v3.7.4 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. The isPrivateIP function in kernel/util/net.go does not properly recognize IPv6 transition addresses (NAT64, 6to4, Teredo), which embed private IPv4 destinations. An authenticated attacker can bypass SSRF protection in SafeMode by supplying URLs resolving to these transition addresses via network forward proxy, WebSocket proxy, or SSE proxy endpoints. This allows full-read SSRF attacks to steal instance credentials, reach internal services, and port-scan internal infrastructure. SiYuan users and administrators, cloud security teams, and network administrators should be aware of this vulnerability. Those using SiYuan versions prior to v3.7.4 are at risk and should take immediate action to mitigate the vulnerability. Authenticated attackers could bypass SSRF protection to reach internal services and cloud metadata endpoints, potentially stealing instance credentials and port-scanning internal infrastructure. The CVE-2026-74905 record indicates a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in SiYuan before v3.7.4. The vulnerability exists in the isPrivateIP function in kernel/util/net.go used by SSRFSafeDialer. This function does not recognize IPv6 transition addresses, allowing an authenticated attacker to bypass SSRF protection via certain endpoints. The record was sourced from official databases and references.

Who should care
SiYuan users and administrators, cloud security teams, and network administrators should be aware of this vulnerability. Those using SiYuan versions prior to v3.7.4 are at risk and should take immediate action to mitigate the vulnerability.
Technical summary
The SiYuan application before v3.7.4 contains a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability. The isPrivateIP function in kernel/util/net.go does not properly recognize IPv6 transition addresses (NAT64, 6to4, Teredo), which embed private IPv4 destinations. An authenticated attacker can bypass SSRF protection in SafeMode by supplying URLs resolving to these transition addresses via network forward proxy, WebSocket proxy, or SSE proxy endpoints. This allows full-read SSRF attacks to steal instance credentials, reach internal services, and port-scan internal infrastructure.
Defensive priority
Authenticated attackers could bypass SSRF protection to reach internal services and cloud metadata endpoints, potentially stealing instance credentials and port-scanning internal infrastructure.
Recommended defensive actions
- Inventory and verify SiYuan installations for version v3.7.4 or later.
- Restrict access to network forward proxy, WebSocket proxy, and SSE proxy endpoints.
- Implement compensating controls to monitor and limit interactions with internal services and cloud metadata endpoints.
- Review and update the isPrivateIP function to include checks for IPv6 transition addresses.
- Enforce strict SSRF protection policies in SafeMode.
Evidence notes
The CVE-2026-74905 record indicates a server-side request forgery (SSRF) vulnerability in SiYuan before v3.7.4. The vulnerability exists in the isPrivateIP function in kernel/util/net.go used by SSRFSafeDialer. This function does not recognize IPv6 transition addresses, allowing an authenticated attacker to bypass SSRF protection via certain endpoints. The record was sourced from official databases and references.
