CVE-2020-14517
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.

Use the current Version 7.10 of the Software CodeMeter Runtime, available via the manufacturer's website. https://www.wibu.com/de/support/anwendersoftware/anwendersoftware.html Only use the Software CodeMeter Runtime as Client. The software tools named under affected products use the Software CodeMeter Runtime as Client in their default setting. Pilz also recommends using a local firewall to limit unwanted access to the network ser- vices of the device with Software CodeMeter Runtime installed.
