Hello,
My name is Emma, I am conducting an academic study on possible credential exposure in public GitHub repositories.
While analyzing this repository, I found a string that may represent a credential. I'm including the code snippet below containing possible leakage. To avoid exposing sensitive information publicly, I marked the sensitive information.
Could you please help clarify whether the detected string is:
- a real credential, or
- a placeholder / example value?
Thank you for your time.
Code snippet (sensitive values masked):
*/
const SESSION_OAUTH_DATA = 'FlickrSessionOauthData';
/**
* Key names for various authentication data items
*/
const OAUTH_REQUEST_TOKEN = 'oauth_request_token';
const OAUTH_REQUEST_TOKEN_SECRET = 'oauth_request_token_secret';
const OAUTH_VERIFIER = 'oauth_verifier';
const OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN = 'oauth_access_token';
const OAUTH_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = 'oauth_access_token_secret';
const USER_NSID = 'user_nsid';
const USER_NAME = 'user_name';
Thank you in advance for your time - I really appreciate it!
Sincerely,
Emma
