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 Codecov access token was found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code makes them easy to expose and puts your secrets at risk if the codebase is shared or leaked.

Impact

If an attacker obtains this access token, they could gain unauthorized access to your Codecov account, potentially compromising sensitive data, modifying code coverage reports, or launching further attacks against your systems or CI/CD pipelines.
