CVE-2026-15012Network attack vector

Unauthenticated file copy via exposed restore secrets

Published Jul 28, 2026 · Updated Jul 28, 2026

Arbitrary directory copy in Dev Easel Demi 0.0.8 and earlier allows remote attackers to copy server files through the restore handler. The handle_restore_step AJAX path trusts a restore key and signed state envelope stored under the web-accessible wp-content/uploads/demi-backup-state directory. An administrator must first start a restore, creating the exposed key and step token; the attacker can then direct copies to attacker-controlled server paths.
