Detected presence of web service access tokens.
Causes risk: web service credentials found
secrets
Problem
Software as a Service (SaaS) platforms expose programmable interfaces to their authenticated users. These web services enable action automation and secure exchange of information. For authorization, web service users provide a unique token that confirms their access rights. These tokens are considered secrets. They should never be included in a software release package, even if they are obfuscated by encryption on the client-side.Prevalence in PyPI community

Next steps
You should securely store web service access tokens, and fully automate their management and periodic rotation.
If tokens were published unintentionally and the software has been made public, you should revoke exposed tokens and file a security incident.
Examples of service tokens that may have been detected include AWS, Facebook, JWT, SWT, Slack and others.

Perform impact analysis for the reported CVEs.
Update the component to the latest version.
If the update can't resolve the issue, create a plan to isolate or replace the affected component.

Detected presence of plaintext credentials within network protocol strings.
Causes risk: web service credentials found
secrets
Problem
Various network communication protocols allow including plaintext authentication credentials. Information such as user names and passwords could be passed through a non-encrypted channel, and therefore intercepted by malicious actors. Credentials are considered secrets, and should be kept encrypted until they are used. This policy control matches the following URI pattern protocol://username:password@domain within any software package component.Prevalence in PyPI community

Next steps
Review the reported matches. If the warning refers to a placeholder credential value, it can be safely ignored.
Problem
Software components contain executable code that performs actions implemented during its development. These actions are called behaviors. In the analysis report, behaviors are presented as human-readable descriptions that best match the underlying code intent. While most behaviors are benign, some are commonly abused by malicious software with the intent to cause harm. When a software package shares behavior traits with malicious software, it may become flagged by security solutions. Any detection from security solutions can cause friction for the end-users during software deployment. While the behavior is likely intended by the developer, there is a small chance this detection is true positive, and an early indication of a software supply chain attack.Prevalence in PyPI community

Next steps
Investigate reported detections.
If the software intent does not relate to the reported behavior, investigate your build and release environment for software supply chain compromise.
You should delay the software release until the investigation is completed, or until the issue is risk accepted.
Consider rewriting the flagged code without using the marked behaviors.
