    CVE-2009-20005 (GCVE-0-2009-20005)

    Vulnerability from cvelistv5 – Published: 2025-09-16 14:32 – Updated: 2026-05-15 11:13
    VLAI
    Title
    InterSystems Caché UtilConfigHome.csp Stack Buffer Overflow
    Summary
    A stack-based buffer overflow exists in the UtilConfigHome.csp endpoint of InterSystems Caché 2009.1. The vulnerability is triggered by sending a specially crafted HTTP GET request containing an oversized argument to the .csp handler. Due to insufficient bounds checking, the input overflows a stack buffer, allowing an attacker to overwrite control structures and execute arbitrary code. It is unknown if this vulnerability was patched and an affected version range remains undefined.
