CWE	CWE-798: Use of Hard-coded Credentials
OWASP	A07:2021 - Identification and Authentication Failures
Confidence Level	Medium
Impact Level	Medium
Likelihood Level	Medium

Description

AWS credentials are being hard-coded directly in the Terraform configuration file. Storing secrets like access keys in source code makes them easy to accidentally expose or leak.

Impact

If these credentials are leaked, anyone with access could control your AWS resources, potentially leading to data loss, service disruption, or financial loss from unauthorized usage. Attackers could exploit these keys to compromise your cloud infrastructure.
