Category	Sensitive Tokens
Severity	LOW
Framework	Git

Impact

A Travis Personal Token grants unauthorized access to CI/CD pipelines, exposure of environment variables, and the ability to manipulate build processes.

Compromise can lead to unauthorized code execution and the exfiltration of sensitive build configuration data.

How to Fix

To remediate exposed Source Control or CI/CD tokens:

1. Log in to the relevant system or provider.
2. Navigate to the settings menu to locate the exposed credential.
3. Revoke or delete the compromised token immediately.
4. Generate a new token if continued access is required.
5. Update any dependent systems or services with the new credential.

Next, remove the secret from your codebase:

1. Locate the exposed secret in your codebase.
2. Replace the hardcoded value with a secure variable or reference.

Finally, clean your version control history:

1. Permanently remove the sensitive data from your version control history to ensure it cannot be retrieved.
