Medium (6.9). EPSS 0.4% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days. Fixed in github.com/siyuan-note/siyuan/kernel 0.0.0-20260723002528-7d273c271ce1.
SiYuan versions before v3.7.4 contain a missing authorization vulnerability in the /api/ref/refreshBacklink endpoint that allows anonymous readers to trigger persistent server-side writes. Attackers can invoke the endpoint with an attacker-controlled block ID to flush transaction queues, scan all references globally, and enqueue database writes, bypassing read-only protections and enabling resource amplification attacks.
