Submit #947748: SciPhi-AI R2R <=3.6.6 Hard-coded Credentialsinfo

TitleSciPhi-AI R2R <=3.6.6 Hard-coded Credentials
DescriptionR2R signs and verifies HS256 session JWTs with R2R_SECRET_KEY. If that variable is unset or empty, both the bcrypt and NaCl crypto providers fall back to a secret hardcoded in the public source tree . Official Docker env files ship R2R_SECRET_KEY= empty, so default deployments use that constant. An unauthenticated attacker can mint a valid access token for any existing account, including the default superuser [email protected], and call authenticated APIs as that user. Enabling require_authentication does not fix this unless the secret is also changed. Password rotation does not invalidate tokens signed with the still-default HMAC key.
