Issue Description:
In the provided code, MD5 is used to hash passwords before sending them to the backend. MD5 is a cryptographically broken hashing algorithm and is no longer considered secure for password storage or transmission. It is vulnerable to collision attacks and can be easily cracked using modern hardware, exposing user credentials to potential compromise.
Risk:
Using MD5 for password hashing significantly weakens the security of the application, making it susceptible to brute force and rainbow table attacks. This could lead to unauthorized access to user accounts and sensitive data.
Recommendation:
Replace MD5 with a secure, modern hashing algorithm such as bcrypt, Argon2, or PBKDF2.
