Description

A HubSpot API key has been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code makes them easy to accidentally expose in version control or shared repositories.

Impact

If this API key is leaked, attackers could gain unauthorized access to your HubSpot account, potentially viewing, modifying, or deleting sensitive marketing and customer data. This could lead to data breaches, account compromise, and reputational damage.
