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

Hard-coded API tokens have been found in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code makes them easy to accidentally expose, especially if the code is shared or published.

Impact

If attackers gain access to these tokens, they could use them to access sensitive APIs or services, potentially leading to data breaches, unauthorized actions, or compromise of other systems connected to your application.
