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

The code includes hard-coded credentials within a URL, exposing sensitive information directly in the source code. Storing secrets like usernames or passwords in code makes them accessible to anyone with code access, increasing the risk of leaks.

Impact

If these credentials are exposed, attackers could gain unauthorized access to protected systems or services, potentially leading to data theft, unauthorized changes, or service disruption. This can compromise both the security of your application and the privacy of users or business data.
