Description
Sensitive Cloudflare API keys have been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code makes them vulnerable to accidental exposure and unauthorized access.
Impact
If attackers obtain these hard-coded API keys, they could gain unauthorized access to your Cloudflare account, potentially modifying DNS records, exposing sensitive data, or disrupting services. This creates a significant risk of service compromise or data breaches.
