This is not a bug and this is how helm is meant to work. By using one or more spaces in the search term, helm separates them into multiple patterns. The candidates that show up after you type a a match both of these patterns.

The behaviour can be reproduced with the following code:

(helm :sources (helm-build-sync-source "Make a selection:"
                 :candidates '("abc.ext" "abc/abc.ext" "def.ext" "def/def.ext"))
      :buffer "*helm sync source*")

This issue can be closed.

If you need to filter for multiple instances of foo, use foo.*foo.
