Go to file
Jack c150e63b52 This module scans /proc/*/environ for potentially sensitive environment variables on Linux systems.
It targets common keywords like token, password, secret, AWS, API, etc.

Uses 'tr' instead of 'strings' to improve compatibility in minimal environments like containers.

The check is skipped entirely on MacPEAS.
