Maybe I don't understand the question. Aren't the STM32 CDC libraries redistributable?

The STM32 USB libraries are provided under the oddly named "Ultimate Liberty License" [1], which is actually incredibly restrictive -- it requires the code to only be used on ST hardware, and prohibits it from being used "in any manner that would subject this software to any Open Source Terms".
