Description

A Shopify shared secret was found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code makes them easy to accidentally expose and accessible to anyone with code access.

Impact

If an attacker obtains this secret, they could impersonate your app, access sensitive Shopify data, or perform unauthorized actions on behalf of your application. This can lead to data breaches, account compromise, and loss of customer trust.
