A stack-based buffer overflow vulnerability exists in the UtilConfigHome.csp endpoint of InterSystems Caché 2009.1. The issue is triggered by a specially crafted HTTP GET request containing an oversized argument processed by the .csp handler. Due to insufficient bounds checking on attacker-controlled input, a stack buffer can be overrun, potentially overwriting saved control data and redirecting execution flow. The available information identifies InterSystems Caché 2009.1 as affected, but it is currently not available whether a patch was issued or what the full affected version range is.

This repository contains a single Metasploit exploit module targeting a stack buffer overflow vulnerability in InterSystems Cache 2009.1 for Windows (CVE-2009-20005). The exploit works by sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request to the '/csp/sys/mgr/UtilConfigHome.csp' endpoint on TCP port 57772, triggering a buffer overflow and allowing arbitrary code execution. The module is operational and allows the attacker to specify a custom Metasploit payload (up to 650 bytes, with certain bad characters filtered). The exploit is designed for Windows 2000 SP4 English systems and leverages a specific return address in 'libhttpd.dll'. The repository is structured as a single Ruby file compatible with the Metasploit framework, and all exploit logic is contained within this file.
