CodeMeter Update

The vulnerabilities were closed by WIBU Systems with CodeMeter version 7.21a. This new version has been tested and released by dSPACE.

dSPACE recommends the update to the current CodeMeter version published at here for all CodeMeter Floating Network License Servers.

CodeMeter 7.21a is no longer compatible with Windows XP SP3. Therefore, the update must not be installed on PCs or virtual machines that run legacy dSPACE releases under Windows XP SP3 based on CodeMeter Licenses and  "Legacy Licensing using CodeMeter Licenses".

 

Hint for users, who operate a CodeMeter floating network license server with the feature license tracking enabled and evaluable the license tracking data in a successive process: Please make sure, that your custom evaluation process still works with CodeMeter 7.21a, because the license tracking now generates significantly more entries and therefore much bigger files.

 

The updated version is available here.
