Several CODESYS setups contain and install vulnerable versions of the WIBU CodeMeter Runtime.
A heap buffer overflow vulnerability in Wibu CodeMeter Runtime network service up to version 7.60b allows an unauthenticated, remote attacker to achieve RCE and gain full access of the host system.
The CODESYS Development System is an IEC 61131-3 programming tool for PLCs based on the CODESYS
Control runtime system, which enables embedded or PC-based devices to be a programmable industrial
controller. All affected CODESYS products install and use the WIBU CodeMeter Runtime for license
management. The manufacturer WIBU-SYSTEMS AG has reported a heap buffer overflow vulnerability in the
WIBU CodeMeter Runtime, which can potentially lead to a remote code execution.
Mitigation
WIBU-SYSTEMS AG recommends updating to CodeMeter Runtime version 7.60c to fix the vulnerability.
Until an update is available for the affected CODESYS products or if this is not to be installed, CODESYS
GmbH recommends downloading and installing the current CodeMeter Runtime directly from the website of
WIBU-SYSTEMS AG (https://www.wibu.com/support/user/user-software.html).
If neither an update of the affected CODESYS products nor an update of the WIBU CodeMeter Runtime can be performed, you may find further mitigations in the Security Advisory WIBU-230704-01 provided by WIBUSYSTEMS AG (https://www.wibu.com/support/security-advisories.html).
