CVE-2026-47899
Arbitrary File Read, Write, Rename, and Delete in Logseq
Description

The Electron preload script in Logseq exposes an API method that allows the renderer process to invoke IPC handlers without proper path validation. An attacker with JavaScript execution in the renderer (e.g. via XSS or a malicious plugin), can read, write, or delete arbitrary files on the user's system. While only version v0.10.15 was tested and confirmed as vulnerable, status of other versions is unknown since this issue was not addressed by a patch.

Solution
Update Electron preload scripts to validate file paths before invoking IPC handlers.
  • Validate all file paths in preload scripts.
  • Sanitize user-supplied input to IPC handlers.
  • Restrict access to sensitive file operations.
  • Update Logseq to a patched version.
