Obfuscated FileNo clear signs of malware or intentional backdoor. The module presents moderate security risks typical of webhook systems: potential sensitive-data leakage due to unfiltered event.as_json, lack of payload signing/verification, insufficient URL restrictions allowing exfiltration to arbitrary endpoints (including internal addresses), and limited retry/error handling. There is also a likely Rails syntax bug in the enum declaration. Recommended mitigations: 1) Sanitize/whitelist fields included in webhook payloads or provide configurable payload schemas; 2) Require and include HMAC signatures (and optionally a timestamp/nonce) so receivers can verify authenticity; 3) Enforce URL restrictions — disallow private IP ranges/localhost and consider domain allowlists for user-created endpoints; 4) Improve retry/backoff and handle non-2xx responses explicitly; 5) Fix enum syntax and add logging/alerts for systemic failures; 6) Limit who can create webhook endpoints and audit endpoint changes.
