🛡️ Sentinel: CRITICAL Remove Hardcoded Secrets#18
Conversation
Removes hardcoded default credentials (DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD) and a default ENCRYPTION_KEY from the Dockerfile. These values were baked into the Docker image, creating a critical security vulnerability. This change also removes the default fallback values from docker-compose.yml, ensuring the application fails to start if a `.env` file with proper credentials is not provided. This enforces a "fail-secure" posture. The .env.example file has been updated with clear placeholder values and instructions to guide developers in creating a secure local environment.

🚨 Severity: CRITICAL
💡 Vulnerability: Hardcoded default credentials and encryption key in Docker configuration.
🎯 Impact: The application could be deployed with weak, publicly known credentials, allowing unauthorized access to the database and compromising the encryption key.
🔧 Fix: Removed hardcoded secrets from the
Dockerfileand default credential fallbacks fromdocker-compose.yml. The system now requires a.envfile for configuration, forcing a secure setup.✅ Verification: Confirmed that the application fails to start without a
.envfile, preventing insecure deployment.PR created automatically by Jules for task 11045151833567126793 started by @richkmeli
