🔥 A predictable session token in HotelDruid’s login function opens the door to brute force attacks, allowing attackers to waltz right past authentication! Think of it like a hotel where the key cards are all made from the same mold; any guest could easily guess which card works for any room, leading to unauthorized access! If an attacker cracks the session token, they could gain full access to the hotel management system, potentially viewing sensitive guest information, changing bookings, or even deleting records. This could lead to an absolute nightmare for hotel operators and guests alike!
