Description#
A Netlify access token has been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing sensitive credentials directly in code exposes them to anyone with access to the repository, increasing the risk of unauthorized use.
Impact#
If an attacker obtains this token, they could gain unauthorized access to your Netlify account, modify or deploy sites, or access sensitive project data. This could lead to service disruptions, data leaks, or malicious content being published under your organization.
