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 Harness API keys were 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 obtain these API keys, they could gain unauthorized access to your Harness account and resources, potentially leading to data leaks, disruption of CI/CD pipelines, or misuse of your infrastructure. This could result in compromised systems and significant organizational risk.
