Description#

A Stripe access token has been found hard-coded in the source code. Storing sensitive credentials like API keys directly in code makes them vulnerable to accidental exposure and unauthorized access.

Impact#

If attackers obtain this access token, they could make unauthorized transactions, view or manipulate customer data, or abuse your Stripe account, leading to potential financial loss, data breaches, and reputational damage.
