Description

Sensitive Shopify custom access tokens have been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code can expose them to anyone with access to the repository, increasing the risk of unauthorized access.

Impact

If attackers obtain these tokens, they could gain unauthorized access to Shopify resources, potentially allowing data theft, account takeover, or manipulation of store operations. This can lead to data breaches, financial loss, and damage to customer trust.
