Investigate Google API key (client-shipped; restriction unverified)

Build 0.0.99 · Scan 2026-10-11T10:25:06.742Z

2 distinct recorded findings; 2 have inspectable metadata. Locations are representative, not an inventory of every source match.

Android apps are designed to ship Google API keys in the client; Google restricts them by app signing certificate + enabled API. This is only a problem if the key is left unrestricted — presence alone is expected, not an exposure.

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