The value is then compared with current session token that's stored in... /tmp/session_token (it changes every reboot at least).

I've verified in for PW4 5.13.2 and 5.13.3


I did try with wireshark but did not get anything (that I could use, I may have missed it in the HUGE file I got)...

Out of curiosity, to learn some, what did you monitor with tcpdump that leaded you to check the /tmp/session_token ?

It does work for me too on 5.12.4...
