🚨 Severity: HIGH
πŸ’‘ Vulnerability: Hardcoded default credentials and secrets (usernames, passwords, and encryption keys) were present in multiple configuration files (Dockerfile, docker-compose.yml, .env.example, and Spring property files).
🎯 Impact: Attackers could gain unauthorized access to the database or decrypt communication if the application is deployed with default settings. It also encourages insecure deployment practices.
πŸ”§ Fix: Removed all hardcoded default values and fallbacks. The application now requires these sensitive configurations to be provided via environment variables.
βœ… Verification: Verified that all default values were removed from the configuration files. Ran mvn test to ensure no build regressions (noting that the build currently fails due to unrelated private dependency access issues).


PR created automatically by Jules for task 3849379717626190645 started by @richkmeli

Removed hardcoded default values for DB_USERNAME, DB_PASSWORD, ENCRYPTION_KEY, and SSL passwords from:
- Dockerfile
- docker-compose.yml
- .env.example
- src/main/resources/application.properties
- src/main/resources/application-docker.properties
- src/main/resources/configuration.properties

This ensures the application follows the "Secure by Default" principle and fails to start if sensitive configuration is not explicitly provided via environment variables.
