A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the database service (ibserver.exe) of Borland InterBase 2007 prior to Service Pack 2. The vulnerability is triggered by sending a create request with an excessively long size value to the service listening on TCP port 3050. This allows remote attackers to overwrite stack memory and potentially execute arbitrary code.

This repository contains a single Metasploit exploit module targeting a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in Borland InterBase 2007 (CVE-2007-3566). The exploit is implemented in Ruby and leverages the Metasploit framework's Remote::Tcp mixin to connect to the InterBase service on TCP port 3050. By sending a specially crafted create-request packet, the exploit triggers a buffer overflow, allowing arbitrary code execution with the privileges of the InterBase service. The payload is customizable using Metasploit's payload system, supporting various post-exploitation actions. The module is designed for use against Windows 2000 (English) systems running Borland InterBase 2007. The repository structure is typical for Metasploit modules, with all logic contained in a single Ruby file.
