Description

A Facebook OAuth token has been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing authentication tokens directly in code exposes sensitive credentials to anyone with access to the codebase.

Impact

If attackers obtain this token, they could impersonate users or access protected Facebook APIs on behalf of your application, leading to unauthorized data access, account compromise, or abuse of integrated Facebook services.
