Delinea Protocol Handler - Remote Code Execution via Update Process (CVE-2024-12908)

The sslauncher:// URI handler takes an ssurl parameter and, with autoUpdateEnabled=true, fetches an update over SOAP from that host, extracts the returned zip and runs its setup.bat msiexec line. The MSI must be Delinea-signed, but arbitrary msiexec parameters are honoured, so a bundled .mst transform rewrites the signed installer at runtime and executes code. ToLower() folds a punycode dotted capital I to i, so the approval prompt is skipped.
