WAGO: Vulnerable WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter installed through e!COCKPIT

Impact
WAGO controllers and IO-Devices are not affected by WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter vulnerabilities.
However, due to compatibility reasons to the 3S Codesys Store, the e!COCKPIT engineering software is bundled with a WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter installation.

Solution
We strongly encourage e!COCKPIT users to update WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter by installing the latest available stand-alone WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter Version.
During the WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter installation process, refer to the recommended setup settings according to the WIBU-SYSTEMS advisories, a brief summary is provided in the chapter mitigation. Please check for updates and details that may not be included in this document.
WAGO will provide an updated e!COCKPIT setup routine with the latest WIBU-SYSTEMS Codemeter version approximately in Q4/2020.

Mitigation
Use general security best practices to protect systems from local and network attacks.
Disable the WIBU-SYSTEMS CodeMeter Runtime WebSockets API.
Run WIBU-SYSTEMS CodeMeter only as client and use localhost as binding for the WIBU-SYSTEMS CodeMeter communication. If you need to operate WIBU-SYSTEMS CodeMeter Runtime as Network License Server please make sure that it is operated in a secure environment.
