Security Researcher Detected: You might have ended up here because your site vulnerability scanner found something interesting. Hi! I'm a security engineer and I'm having a good time interacting with the people and bots that are interested in information security.

You will hopefully find this site is well-secured and I'm not interested in being hacked. I'm interested in learning about how people try to hack me, though.

What is this endpoint?

api/v1/firebase/projects

Firebase Projects API

What an attacker could do

Exposure of Firebase project credentials or a service account would let an attacker read and write Firestore/Realtime Database data, manage Auth users, and invoke Cloud Functions across the project.

How to defend it

Enforce strict Firebase Security Rules instead of relying on obscurity, never ship admin service-account keys to clients, and restrict API keys by referrer/IP in the Google Cloud console.
