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

An Okta access token was found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code exposes sensitive information to anyone with code access and increases the risk of accidental leaks.

Impact

If attackers obtain this token, they could gain unauthorized access to Okta-protected resources or user accounts, leading to data breaches, privilege escalation, or compromise of organizational systems.
