Description
The Wertheim SafeController Software, AssemblyVersion 6.15.8328.28014, contains a hard-coded cryptographic key in the SafeSystem.Infrastructure.Security.dll component. An attacker with access to the application files can reverse engineer the DLL and recover the hard-coded cryptographic key. This key can be used to decrypt the licence.whs file, which contains sensitive information about the licensing party and a second key that can be used to decrypt other configuration files.

What to do
Solution: The vendor provides a patch which should be installed immediately. Specific fixed version information was not provided. Affected parties should contact the vendor to request the update.
Workaround: Restrict filesystem and backup access to the SafeController application installation directory and related configuration files. Ensure that application binaries, licence.whs, and configuration files are not exposed through web-accessible paths or document download functionality. Rotate affected keys and secrets where possible after installing the vendor-provided patch. These measures should only be treated as interim risk reduction; the vendor-provided patch should be installed.
