❌ Codacy found a critical Security issue: Possible hardcoded secret: Slack token

The issue identified by the Trivy linter is that the Slack token is hardcoded directly in the source code. Hardcoding sensitive information such as API tokens, passwords, or other secrets can lead to security vulnerabilities, as anyone with access to the code can see and misuse these credentials.

To resolve this issue, the best practice is to store sensitive information in environment variables or a secure secrets management system. This way, the codebase remains clean and does not expose sensitive information.

Here's a single line change to fix the issue by retrieving the Slack token from an environment variable:

Suggested change
slack_token = "xoxb-123456789012-1234567890123-abcdefghijklmnopqrstfvfx"
slack_token = os.getenv("SLACK_TOKEN")

In this suggestion, you would need to ensure that the environment variable SLACK_TOKEN is set in your environment where the application runs.

🚫 Codacy found a high Security issue: Possible hardcoded password: 'xoxb-123456789012-1234567890123-abcdefghijklmnopqrstfvfx'

The issue identified by the Bandit linter is that a sensitive token (in this case, a Slack API token) is hardcoded directly in the source code. Hardcoding sensitive information like API keys, passwords, or tokens can lead to security vulnerabilities, as anyone who has access to the source code can see and use the token, potentially leading to unauthorized access to the associated services.

To fix this issue, it is recommended to store sensitive information in environment variables or a secure configuration management system instead of hardcoding them in the source code. Here's a single line change to retrieve the Slack token from an environment variable:

Suggested change
slack_token = "xoxb-123456789012-1234567890123-abcdefghijklmnopqrstfvfx"
slack_token = os.getenv("SLACK_TOKEN")

In this suggestion, os.getenv("SLACK_TOKEN") retrieves the value of the SLACK_TOKEN environment variable, which should be set in the environment where the application is running, thereby keeping the token secure.
