TypeBot API tokens stored in plaintext
TypeBot is a chatbot builder tool. In version 3.16.1, API tokens (bearer credentials used to authenticate against the builder API) are stored in the database as cleartext strings. An attacker who gains read access to the database (e.g., via SQL injection, backup exposure, or insider access) can extract all API tokens and impersonate any user without requiring a password or multi-factor authentication. Version 3.17.0 fixes the issue.
