Investigate Hardcoded HTTP Basic-auth credentials

Build 2.6.11 · Scan 2026-09-29T21:52:26.711Z

1 distinct recorded findings; 1 have inspectable metadata. Locations are representative, not an inventory of every source match.

Hardcoded HTTP Basic-auth credentials (a username:password pair, base64-encoded in an Authorization header) are embedded in the app. If the endpoint is live, anyone can extract and reuse them — rotate the credential and move auth server-side. Confirm it isn't a placeholder.

Static evidence does not establish runtime impact. Source excerpts and line numbers were not recorded.
