Security Advisory

Warning: Two critical and several major vulnerabilities have been identified in all versions of Wibu CodeMeter bundled with Vizrt products. Please see the Wibu Security Advisories page for more information. We strongly recommend you to update CodeMeter to version 7.10a. You can find the installer and instructions on Vizrt's download page. The instructions are also included below.

Important: CodeMeter version 7.10a comes with important security fixes. Although CodeMeter may be upgraded independently of the Vizrt software that requires it, some adjustments are necessary to maintain compatibility. These adjustments are detailed below. If the adjustments are not made, you may be unable to find licenses and license containers.

Before Installation

  1. Start the CodeMeter Control Center and click the WebAdmin button. The WebAdmin page will open in your browser.

  2. Click Configuration.

  3. Note down the entries in the CodeMeter Server Search List, including the IP address.

During Installation

During installation, you will be prompted about which features to install. For the "Automatic server search" feature, select "Entire feature will be unavailable". The rest of the features should be left at their defaults.

After Installation

  1. Start the CodeMeter Control Center and click the WebAdmin button. The WebAdmin page will open in your browser.

  2. Click Configuration.

  3. Check the Server Search List for an entry named "Automatic server search (255.255.255.255)".

  4. If you find the entry on the list, click on the green trashcan icon on the same line to delete it.

  5. If the entries that you noted down before the installation are missing from the list, add them.
