CVE-2024-48510 is a directory traversal vulnerability in DotNetZip version 1.16.0 and earlier, including affected ProDotNetZip package variants, in the ZIP extraction logic implemented in the ZipEntry extraction component. The flaw arises from insufficient validation and canonicalization of archive entry paths during extraction, allowing crafted ZIP entries to escape the intended destination directory and write files to attacker-controlled locations on the target system. When a victim processes a malicious archive with vulnerable extraction code, the attacker can place files outside the extraction root and potentially achieve arbitrary code execution depending on where files are written and how the target environment handles them. The issue affects unsupported DotNetZip versions and has also impacted downstream products that embedded the vulnerable library.
