The code exposes the ElevenLabs API key in plain text via a hardcoded 'xi-api-key' header. Any attacker who gains access to this API key can use it to make unauthorized requests to the service, potentially leading to data breaches or account takeover.
Impact:
An attacker could exploit this vulnerability to perform unauthorized actions on behalf of the compromised account, including accessing sensitive information and performing actions that would normally require authentication.
Mitigation:
Use environment variables or secure vaults to manage API keys. Avoid hardcoding secrets in source code. Implement proper access controls to restrict API key usage.
