//index.js
// Sensitive Information
const DB = {
host: 'localhost',
user: 'root',
password: 'password123!@#', // Plaintext password
database: 'testdb'
};
const API_KEY = '12345-SECRET-API-KEY!@'; // Example of an API key
// Example function to simulate using these credentials
function connectToDatabase() {
console.log(
Connecting to database ${DB.database} on ${DB.host} as ${DB.user});console.log(
Password: ${DB.password}); // Example of exposing the password, which is a bad practice!}
function callExternalAPI() {
console.log(
Calling API with key: ${API_KEY});}
connectToDatabase();
callExternalAPI();
