Something is wrong with that version of an MSDS (bold text mine to highlight error)

section 9:

Solubility In water:insoluble

Section 12

Hydrogen cyanide is only weakly absorbed by organic matter(1). Hydrogen cyanide is not strongly partitioned into the sediments or suspended adsorbents, primarily due to its high solubility in water

Cyanide is polar, so it should be highly soluble in water due to hydrogen bonding iirc correctly.
