Code Review Feedback

Sensitive Data

• API key is hardcoded in plain text. This is a major security vulnerability. API keys, passwords, and other secrets should never be stored directly in code. Use environment variables or a secrets management system instead.
• Username and password are hardcoded in the requests.get() call. Same issue as with the API key above. These credentials should be stored securely and retrieved at runtime.

Error Handling

• No error handling is implemented. The code assumes the API request succeeds, which is not guaranteed. Proper exception handling should be added to handle cases where the request fails.

Security

• HTTPS should be used for the API URL to encrypt data in transit, especially when dealing with sensitive information like API keys and credentials.

Praise

• It's good that the sensitive PEM key data is being written to a file instead of stored in memory. This reduces the risk of the key being exposed if the memory is compromised.

In summary, the main issues with the provided code are the hardcoded API key, lack of testing, and missing error handling. Addressing these issues will improve the security, reliability, and maintainability of the code.
