CVE-2025-15457Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Unauthenticated file restoration via unchecked revert request

Published Jan 5, 2026 · Updated Jan 5, 2026

Improper authentication in bg5sbk MiniCMS 1.0 through 1.8 allows remote attackers to restore trashed files through post.php. The Trash File Restore Handler accepts a revert request after the mc_token cookie is removed, without verifying login state or restore permission. Network access to the administrative endpoint is sufficient; an unauthenticated request moves selected content from trash back to its draft folder.
