CyberRota Analysis
AI-GeneratedCodeMeter Runtime versions prior to 8.41a and 9.10, when configured as a server, lack proper network-origin restrictions, allowing remote attackers to execute commands intended for local clients. This vulnerability can lead to unauthorized access to sensitive configuration data and the ability to overwrite critical settings, including the credentials hash for the CodeMeter WebAdmin, potentially resulting in a complete takeover of the WebAdmin interface. Organizations using affected versions should prioritize patching to mitigate the risk of exploitation.
Original NVD Description
If CodeMeter Runtime before 8.41a or 9.10 is configured as a server, the configuration command handler does not enforce network- origin restrictions. Commands intended only for local or same-network clients can therefore be executed by arbitrary remote peers. An attacker can read potentially sensitive configuration data and overwrite selected values in Server.ini. This does include the hash of the credentials for the CodeMeter WebAdmin, enabling WebAdmin takeover.
