Request to Remove Testing and Sensitive Files from gin-gonic/gin Repository #4147

Open

Description

@JyotiSali18

During a security scan using Twistlock, we have detected testing PEM file located in the following directory within the github.com/gin-gonic/gin module:

/testdata/certificate/key.pem

This file is being flagged as a vulnerability due to its potential sensitivity and inclusion of private keys/certificates. Per security best practices, sensitive files such as private keys should not be included in public repositories, even for testing purposes.

I kindly request that you remove all testing and potentially sensitive files from these directories to prevent any security risks. This would also help ensure compliance with security scanning tools and best practices.

Thank you for your attention to this matter. We appreciate your effort in maintaining the security and integrity of this library.
