Analysis

From README.md we get very useful information.

security: This package contains all the security-related classes like the ones that generate and verify JWTs, Authorization filters etc. The idea is to have all the models, repositories and services which are related to security all in one package.

In bookshelf-pico\src\main\java\io\github\nandandesai\pico\security\SecretGenerator.java we find key for forging new JTW tokens. getServerSecret Reads existing file and uses it as the key, otherwise creates a new key using generateRandomString which just returns 1234 and writes to file for later use. Most probably the key for JWT tokens is 1234

In bookshelf-pico\src\main\java\io\github\nandandesai\pico\configs\BookShelfConfig.java:

User freeUser = new User();
freeUser.setProfilePicName("default-avatar.png")
        .setRole(FreeRole)
        .setLastLogin(LocalDateTime.now())
        .setFullName("User")
        .setEmail("user")
        .setPassword(passwordEncoder.encode("user"));
userRepository.save(freeUser);

User admin = new User();
admin.setProfilePicName("default-avatar.png")
        .setRole(AdminRole)
        .setLastLogin(LocalDateTime.now())
        .setFullName("Admin")
        .setEmail("admin")
        .setPassword(passwordEncoder.encode("<redacted>"));
userRepository.save(admin);

logger.info("initialized 'admin' and 'user' users.");
