Vendor: Schneider Electric SE
Product web page: https://www.pelco.com
Affected version: 2.0.41
                  1.14.7
                  1.12.105

Summary: VideoXpert is a video management solution designed for
scalability, fitting the needs surveillance operations of any size.
VideoXpert Ultimate can also aggregate other VideoXpert systems,
tying multiple video management systems into a single interface.

Desc: The software transmits sensitive data using double Base64 encoding
for the Cookie 'auth_token' in a communication channel that can be
sniffed by unauthorized actors or arbitrarely be read from the vxcore
log file directly using directory traversal attack resulting in
authentication bypass / session hijacking.
Ref: ZSL-2017-5419

Tested on: Microsoft Windows 7 Professional SP1 (EN)
           Jetty(9.2.6.v20141205)

After a user logs in, the web server creates a Cookie: auth_token which has the following value:

ZXlKMWMyVnlibUZ0WlNJNkltRmtiV2x1SWl3aWNHRnpjM2R2Y21RaU9pSmhaRzFwYmpFeU15SXNJbVJ2YldGcGJpSTZJa3hQUTBGTUlpd2laWGh3YVhKbGN5STZNVFE1TVRVMU5qYzVOekUxT0N3aVlXZGxiblFpT2lJME1HWTJORE00TmkxbVptTXdMVFExTkRFdE9XTmpaQzFoTlRJeU0yUmlNbVpqTURraUxDSmpiR2xsYm5SSmNDSTZJakV5Tnk0d0xqQXVNU0o5

Base64 decoding that becomes:

eyJ1c2VybmFtZSI6ImFkbWluIiwicGFzc3dvcmQiOiJhZG1pbjEyMyIsImRvbWFpbiI6IkxPQ0FMIiwiZXhwaXJlcyI6MTQ5MTU1Njc5NzE1OCwiYWdlbnQiOiI0MGY2NDM4Ni1mZmMwLTQ1NDEtOWNjZC1hNTIyM2RiMmZjMDkiLCJjbGllbnRJcCI6IjEyNy4wLjAuMSJ9

Again decoding, gives us result:
