Removed hardcoded frontend credentials ('admin'/'admin') in `DisplayRulesManager.tsx` that allowed local bypass of the authentication screen. The client now properly verifies credentials by making an authenticated API call (`fetchDisplayConfigs()`) to the backend and checking for success before storing the token and granting access to the UI.

🚨 Severity: CRITICAL
💡 Vulnerability: The frontend
DisplayRulesManagercomponent used insecure client-side authentication by checking against hardcoded credentials and trusting a locally generated Base64 token without server validation.🎯 Impact: An attacker could trivially bypass the login screen by either typing the hardcoded password or manipulating
localStorage, gaining unauthorized access to the admin UI overlay.🔧 Fix: Removed the hardcoded credential checks. Replaced with a secure backend validation step where
fetchDisplayConfigs()is called with the generated token; UI access is only granted if the server returns a successful response.✅ Verification:
npm testpasses for the component, TypeScript typechecking passes, and manual review confirms the backend call securely guards state changes.PR created automatically by Jules for task 7123989805348526084 started by @aperetti
