🎯 What: The vulnerability fixed
This PR addresses a security vulnerability where a URL parameter (pass) was directly embedded into an API request URL using a template literal.

⚠️ Risk: The potential impact if left unfixed
Manual string interpolation of URL parameters can lead to injection attacks or malformed URLs if the parameter contains special characters (e.g., &, #, ?). In this case, it could potentially be used to bypass password validation or manipulate the backend API request.

🛡️ Solution: How the fix addresses the vulnerability
The fix uses the searchParams option provided by the @nuxt/http client. This ensures that the parameters are automatically and correctly URL-encoded using the URLSearchParams API, eliminating the risk of injection and ensuring robust data handling.


PR created automatically by Jules for task 6489480205902999206 started by @bovas85

Modified `pages/private/index.vue` to use the `searchParams` option in the `$http.$get` call instead of direct template literal interpolation. This ensures that the `pass` query parameter is correctly URL-encoded, preventing potential injection vulnerabilities or broken URLs due to special characters.
