Security-related question about a possible exposed credential #25

Description
Hello,
My name is Emma, I am conducting an academic study on possible credential exposure in public GitHub repositories.
While analyzing this repository, I found a string that may represent a credential. I'm including the code snippet below containing possible leakage. To avoid exposing sensitive information publicly, I marked the sensitive information.
Could you please help clarify whether the detected string is:
- a real credential, or
- a placeholder / example value?
Thank you for your time.
Code snippet (sensitive values masked):
roomRouter.get('/info/:id', async (req, res) => {
const roomId = req.params.id;
let dbRoom = await ClaRoom.findOne({ id: roomId });
if (dbRoom) {
dbRoom.attendeePassword = '*****';
dbRoom.speakerPassword = '*****';
res.status(200).send(dbRoom);
} else {
res.status(404).send(`room ${roomId} do not existed!`);
}
});
Thank you in advance for your time - I really appreciate it!
Sincerely,
Emma
