Confidence Level	Low

Likelihood Level	Low

Description#

MessageBird API tokens have been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing credentials directly in code exposes them to anyone who has access to the repository, including through public leaks or insider threats.

Impact#

If attackers obtain these tokens, they can impersonate your application, send messages, access sensitive data, or incur costs by abusing your MessageBird account. This could lead to data breaches, service disruption, and financial loss.
