Licensing of STM32Cube USB Drivers

[Bengr]

Hello,

I am working on a project where a device is updated using dfu-util and utilizes the DFU driver from the STM32Cube(Programmer) drivers subdirectory. I would like to distribute these drivers to my customers and need to know, for the FOSS Software Bill of Materials (SBOM), what license is used for these files. I understand that stm32bootloader.inf and cat are licensed by STM under the SLA0048 license. Is that correct?

However, what license is used for files such as WdfCoInstaller01009.dll and winusbcoinstaller2.dll? Where can I find the license information for these files? Are those property of Microsoft or STM?

Is this the appropriate place to ask this question, or would there be a better forum for it?

Thank you and regards,
Ben

The Microsoft files that you've mentioned can be distributed under the Microsoft WDK end-user license agreement (EULA). It is this one or a similar: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/legal/partner-center/eula-partner-center-sdk
