If this information is indeed intended to be secret, we would recommend that you remove this file from the repository (using .gitignore) and generate new passwords for the vulnerable accounts. We would much appreciate a response, letting us know if we are mistaken in concluding that this is a secret, or if you made changes as a result of this report.

Thank you.

Spot on. That's an almighty howler. Thankfully the website is no longer used.
