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

Description

A Twitter API bearer token was found hard-coded in the source code. Storing sensitive credentials directly in code makes them easy to accidentally expose and should be avoided.

Impact

If an attacker obtains this token, they could gain unauthorized access to your Twitter account or API, potentially resulting in data leaks, account abuse, or reputational damage. Hard-coded secrets are a common target for attackers scanning public or leaked code repositories.
