The author considers the stochastic analog of the Baker--Hausdorff formula for operators satisfying the canonical commutation relations. This formula can be used to obtain an exact solution to the problem of the dynamics of a quantum system interacting with the environment. In fact, the author has obtained an exact solution to a stochastic differential equation of first order with respect to operators with commutator equal to one, so that deterministic complex functions of time multiplying the differential of an \(n\)-dimensional Wiener process do not commute at different instants of time. Thus, one has derived the stochastic analog of the classical Baker--Hausdorff formula. One can exactly calculate the system state evolution defined by a generator quadratic with respect to the system operators, for an arbitrary initial state (for example, for a system interacting with the compressed heat bath). In addition, an analogous method can be applied to calculate the non-Markovian evolution of the state of a system [\textit{W.\,T.\thinspace Strunz} and \textit{T.\,Yu}, ''Convolutionless non-Markovian master equations and quantum trajectories: Brownian motion revisited'', Phys.\ Rev.\ A 69, Art.\ No.~052115 (2004; \url{arXiv:quant-ph/0312103})].
