Info
Note on security vulnerabilities
Under certain conditions, installing CodeMeter on Windows could result in an unintended privilege escalation. In such cases, the CodeMeter Control Center could be launched with System privileges instead of the permissions of the user account. This vulnerability has been fixed in version 8.30a. As of this version, the CodeMeter Control Center is only launched at the end of the installation if it is clearly determined that only user-level privileges are present. A detailed classification will soon be published in Security Advisory WIBU-100120 at https://www.wibu.com/en/support/security-advisories.html

Bugfixes:
CmRt-86031: WibuCmNET.dll: The NuGet package of the CodeMeter runtime library for .NET had a manually entered dependency on a library (RoslynCodeTaskFactory) that was not (or no longer) required. This dependency has been removed.

CmRt-101358: CodeMeter License Server: The curl library statically integrated in CodeMeter 8.30 suffers from a vulnerability (CVE-2025-0665). This vulnerability is very difficult to exploit within or via CodeMeter and has therefore been rated as ?low? in this environment. The library has been updated to a version that no longer contains this vulnerability.

CmRt-101394: CodeMeter License Server: When programming CmDongles with Universal Firm Code, the explicit setting of the Firm Update Counter was not applied by the reprogramming if the Firm Item contained one or more Module Items. This type of programming process can occur, for example, during the recycle operation in CodeMeter License Central; this led to discrepancies between the actual CmDongle content and the status in the database.

CmRt-101258: CodeMeter License Server: Linux: On Linux, the automatic start of the new CodeMeter Start Center for the various distributions did not work reliably. The autostart functionality was therefore deactivated.

CmRt-101173: CodeMeter WebAdmin: The option integrated in CodeMeter WebAdmin to switch to a WebAdmin of another license server did not take into account that other license servers can now also run on ports other than the own. Now the port details are appended if they differ from the own port.

CmRt-101308: CodeMeter WebAdmin: In version 8.30, the check for the License Access Control Lists (ACL) was made stricter so that mixed operation of rules with domain users and non-domain users was no longer configurable. As a result, previously existing rules could be deleted when the License Access Control Lists were saved again in CodeMeter WebAdmin. The previous behavior has now been restored and both domain and non-domain users can be configured in the lists.
