CVE-2026-2957Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Service interruption via unbounded backup deletion loop

Published Feb 22, 2026 · Updated Feb 22, 2026

Improper resource release in dst-admin 1.0 through 1.5.0 allows remote authenticated users to interrupt service via backup deletion requests. BackupController.deleteBackup accepts an attacker-sized JSON array and synchronously calls backupService.deleteBackup for every supplied filename without bounding the list. Any authenticated account can reach the endpoint; the public record reports denial of service but does not identify whether exhaustion causes a hang or crash.
