Vulnerability summary
---------------------
The IDAL HTTP server CGI interface contains a URL, which allows an 
unauthenticated attacker to bypass authentication and gain access to privileged 
functions.


Technical details
-----------------
In the IDAL CGI interface, there is a URL (/cgi/loginDefaultUser), which will 
create a session in an authenticated state and return the session ID along with 
the username and plaintext password of the user. An attacker can then login 
with the provided credentials or supply the string 'IDALToken=......' in a 
cookie which will allow them to perform privileged operations such as 
restarting the service with /cgi/restart.

Proof of concept
----------------
```
GET http://localhost:81/cgi/loginDefaultUser
````

    1
    #S_OK
    IDALToken=532c8632b86694f0232a68a0897a145c
    admin
