Improper validation of memory boundaries in WibuKey64.sys of WibuKey up to 6.70 for Windows can be exploited by an attacker by setting the pointers outside the scope of the program. This usually results in a denial of service, yet we cannot rule out the possibility of exploits that can cause Remote Code Execution and Privilege Escalation (since the driver runs with system privileges).
In WibuKey for Windows before version 6.71, an untrusted pointer dereference in the WibuKey264.sys kernel driver for 64-bit Windows allows an attacker to exploit a write-what-where primitive, enabling local privilege escalation. This can be leveraged to execute arbitrary code, run an administrator shell, or gain full control over the system.
WibuKey Runtime 6.51 contains an unquoted service path vulnerability in the WkSvW32.exe service that allows local attackers to potentially execute arbitrary code. Attackers can exploit the unquoted path in 'C:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\WIBUKEY\SERVER\WkSvW32.exe' to inject malicious executables and escalate privileges.
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.
Wibu CodeMeter before 8.30a sometimes allows privilege escalation immediately after installation (before a logoff or reboot). For exploitation, there must have been an unprivileged installation with UAC, and the CodeMeter Control Center component must be installed, and the CodeMeter Control Center component must not have been restarted. In this scenario, the local user can navigate from Import License to a privileged instance of Windows Explorer.
An issue was discovered in WibuKey64.sys in WIBU-SYSTEMS WibuKey before v6.70 and fixed in v.6.70 An improper bounds check allows specially crafted packets to cause an arbitrary address read, resulting in Denial of Service.
An issue was discovered in WibuKey64.sys in WIBU-SYSTEMS WibuKey before v6.70 and fixed in v.6.70. An improper bounds check allows crafted packets to cause an arbitrary address write, resulting in kernel memory corruption.
Wibu-Systems AG CodeMeter Runtime 4.30c, 4.10b, and possibly other versions before 4.40 allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (CodeMeter.exe crash) via certain crafted packets to TCP port 22350.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in Licenses.html in Wibu-Systems CodeMeter WebAdmin 3.30 and 4.30 allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the BoxSerial parameter.
Wibu-Systems CodeMeter Runtime before 5.20 uses weak permissions (read and write access for all users) for codemeter.exe, which allows local users to gain privileges via a Trojan horse file.
Cross-site scripting (XSS) vulnerability in the "advanced settings - time server" module in Wibu-Systems CodeMeter before 6.50b allows remote attackers to inject arbitrary web script or HTML via the "server name" field in actions/ChangeConfiguration.html.
An exploitable pool corruption vulnerability exists in the 0x8200E804 IOCTL handler functionality of WIBU-SYSTEMS WibuKey.sys Version 6.40 (Build 2400). A specially crafted IRP request can cause a buffer overflow, resulting in kernel memory corruption and, potentially, privilege escalation. An attacker can send an IRP request to trigger this vulnerability.
An exploitable heap overflow vulnerability exists in the WkbProgramLow function of WibuKey Network server management, version 6.40.2402.500. A specially crafted TCP packet can cause a heap overflow, potentially leading to remote code execution. An attacker can send a malformed TCP packet to trigger this vulnerability.
An exploitable kernel memory disclosure vulnerability exists in the 0x8200E804 IOCTL handler functionality of WIBU-SYSTEMS WibuKey.sys Version 6.40 (Build 2400).A specially crafted IRP request can cause the driver to return uninitialized memory, resulting in kernel memory disclosure. An attacker can send an IRP request to trigger this vulnerability.
An attacker could send a specially crafted packet that could have CodeMeter (All versions prior to 7.10) send back packets containing data from the heap.
This vulnerability allows an attacker to use the internal WebSockets API for CodeMeter (All versions prior to 7.00 are affected, including Version 7.0 or newer with the affected WebSockets API still enabled. This is especially relevant for systems or devices where a web browser is used to access a web server) via a specifically crafted Java Script payload, which may allow alteration or creation of license files for when combined with CVE-2020-14515.
CodeMeter (All versions prior to 6.81) and the software using it may crash while processing a specifically crafted license file due to unverified length fields.
Protocol encryption can be easily broken for CodeMeter (All versions prior to 6.90 are affected, including Version 6.90 or newer only if CodeMeter Runtime is running as server) and the server accepts external connections, which may allow an attacker to remotely communicate with the CodeMeter API.
CodeMeter (All versions prior to 6.90 when using CmActLicense update files with CmActLicense Firm Code) has an issue in the license-file signature checking mechanism, which allows attackers to build arbitrary license files, including forging a valid license file as if it were a valid license file of an existing vendor. Only CmActLicense update files with CmActLicense Firm Code are affected.
Multiple memory corruption vulnerabilities exist in CodeMeter (All versions prior to 7.10) where the packet parser mechanism does not verify length fields. An attacker could send specially crafted packets to exploit these vulnerabilities.
In WIBU CodeMeter Runtime before 7.30a, creating a crafted CmDongles symbolic link will overwrite the linked file without checking permissions.
A denial of service vulnerability exists in Wibu-Systems CodeMeter versions < 7.21a. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this issue to crash the CodeMeter Runtime Server.
A buffer over-read vulnerability exists in Wibu-Systems CodeMeter versions < 7.21a. An unauthenticated remote attacker can exploit this issue to disclose heap memory contents or crash the CodeMeter Runtime Server.
A Improper Privilege Management vulnerability through an incorrect use of privileged APIs in CodeMeter Runtime versions prior to 7.60c allow a local, low privileged attacker to use an API call for escalation of privileges in order gain full admin access on the host system.
