Vulnerability Details:
The Customer’s Tomedo Server in Version 1.7.3 communicates to the Vendor Tomedo Server via HTTP (in cleartext) that can 
be sniffed by unauthorized actors.
Basic authentication is used for the authentication what’s makes it possible to base64 decode the sniffed credentials 
and get hold of the username and password.

Proof of concept:
Capture the traffic between the Tomedo servers via a proxy or a MITM attack and base64 decode the credentials from the 
HTTP GET request.
