Enabled global rate limiting in `backend/src/app.ts` to protect against DoS and brute force attacks. Fixed `@fastify/jwt` dependency version mismatch (v10 -> v8) to allow backend to start on Fastify v4. Updated global error handler to correctly process rate limit (429) errors. Added Jest configuration and security verification test suite. Co-authored-by: Magnopiro-oficial <122941268+Magnopiro-oficial@users.noreply.github.com>

π¨ Severity: HIGH
π‘ Vulnerability: API endpoints were unprotected against excessive requests (DoS/Brute Force) because rate limiting was commented out. Additionally, the backend was crashing on startup due to a Fastify version mismatch.
π― Impact: Attackers could flood the API with requests, causing denial of service or brute-forcing authentication.
π§ Fix:
@fastify/jwtto v8.0.1 (compatible with Fastify v4).@fastify/rate-limitinapp.tsusing environment configuration.error.middleware.tsto handle numeric429error codes from the rate limiter.β Verification: Added
backend/src/__tests__/rate_limit.test.tswhich confirms that excessive requests (over limit) are blocked with status 429.PR created automatically by Jules for task 12238560872752442089 started by @Magnopiro-oficial
