CVE-2024-57728 is a path traversal vulnerability in SimpleHelp remote support and RMM software caused by unsafe extraction of attacker-controlled ZIP archive entries during file upload. In affected versions, an authenticated administrator can upload a crafted ZIP file containing traversal sequences so that files are written outside the intended extraction directory and into arbitrary locations on the underlying host filesystem. This arbitrary file write condition can then be leveraged to place executable content or overwrite files in a manner that results in arbitrary code execution on the SimpleHelp server, running in the security context of the SimpleHelp server user. Reported affected versions include SimpleHelp 5.5.7 and earlier, with vendor fixes released in 5.5.8, 5.4.10, and 5.3.9 for the supported branches.
