OWASP A07:2021 - Identification and Authentication Failures
Confidence Level Low
Impact Level Medium
Likelihood Level Low

Description

A Hugging Face access token was found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code exposes them to anyone who can access the repository, increasing the risk of unauthorized access.

Impact

If the token is leaked, an attacker could use it to access your Hugging Face account, potentially stealing, modifying, or deleting models and data. This could lead to data breaches, loss of intellectual property, or unauthorized resource usage.
