⚡ Snyk Agent Fix suggestion 1 of 5

The diff replaces the constant SECRET3 with a value from the environment variable SECRET3 set via process.env. This change mitigates the security vulnerability of using hard-coded credentials within the source code, which can expose sensitive information if the codebase is exposed. By sourcing SECRET3 from an environment variable, the credentials can be kept secure and managed separately, reducing the risk of leaking sensitive data. The original vulnerability (489a8cb5-6818-5647-a130-6e3a4545441d) likely involved improper handling of secure data, such as using insecure constant values for authentication purposes. generated by AI
