A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the BCAAA component prior to build 60258, as used in Blue Coat ProxySG versions 4.2.3 through 6.1 and ProxyOne. The vulnerability is triggered by sending a large packet to the BCAAA synchronization port (16102/tcp), which can result in the execution of arbitrary code by a remote attacker.

This repository contains a single Metasploit exploit module targeting a stack buffer overflow vulnerability (CVE-2011-5124) in the Blue Coat Authentication and Authorization Agent (BCAAA) version 5.4.6.1.54128, specifically in the bcaaa-130.exe process listening on TCP port 16102. The exploit leverages a crafted buffer containing a ROP chain to bypass DEP/ASLR protections and delivers a customizable Metasploit payload (up to 936 bytes, avoiding null bytes). The module allows the user to specify the number of exploit attempts (default 3) due to the unreliable nature of the vulnerability. Upon successful exploitation, arbitrary code execution is achieved on the target Windows system. The code is written in Ruby and is structured as a standard Metasploit module, making use of the framework's payload and handler mechanisms. No hardcoded IP addresses or URLs are present; the only fingerprintable endpoint is the TCP port 16102, which is the default for the vulnerable service.
