Summary

Trilium Notes is a cross-platform hierarchical note-taking application. Prior to version 0.102.2, a malicious ZIP archive imported with safe import enabled achieves RCE via #docName path traversal and XSS. It combines a payload note (type: code, mime: text/plain) containing raw HTML/JS and a trigger note (type: doc or launcher) with a #docName label using ../ path traversal to point at the payload note's API endpoint. The desktop client Electron runs with nodeIntegration enabled, so RCE is triggered once the payload is executed. This vulnerability is fixed in version 0.102.2.

Risk Assessment

An attacker can gain full control of the victim's system through remote code execution, leading to data theft, malware installation, or other malicious activities.

Recommendation

It is recommended to immediately update Trilium Notes to version 0.102.2 or later.

Original NVD description (English source)

Trilium Notes is a cross-platform, hierarchical note taking application focused on building large personal knowledge bases. Prior to 0.102.2, a malicious ZIP archive imported with safe import enabled achieves RCE via #docName path traversal and XSS by combining a payload note (type: code, mime: text/plain) containing raw HTML/JS and a trigger note (type: doc or type: launcher) with a #docName label that uses ../ path traversal to point at the payload note's API endpoint. The desktop client Electron renderer runs with nodeIntegration enabled, so an RCE is triggered once the payload is executed. This vulnerability is fixed in 0.102.2.
