CVE-2024-22779Public exploitNetwork attack vector

Remote code execution via unchecked ZIP paths

Published Feb 2, 2024 · Updated Aug 1, 2024

Path traversal in Kihron ServerRPExposer 1.0.2 and earlier allows remote attackers to execute arbitrary code through a server resource pack. loadServerPack resolves each untrusted ZIP entry name beneath the extraction directory and writes it without verifying that the canonical destination remains inside that directory. The victim must connect to a malicious multiplayer server and accept its resource pack; a traversal entry can place a JAR in the mods folder for later execution.
