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

Description

A Fastly API token has been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code makes them easy to accidentally leak or expose, putting sensitive access at risk.

Impact

If an attacker obtains this token, they could gain unauthorized access to your Fastly account, modify configurations, or disrupt services. This can lead to data breaches, service outages, or misuse of infrastructure resources.
