Change status code to 401 Unauthorized for invalid token.
When token verification fails due to an invalid token, it's more appropriate to return a 401 Unauthorized response instead of 403 Forbidden. The 401 status code indicates that authentication has failed, which aligns with the nature of an invalid token.
Apply this diff to change the status code:
logger.error("Token verification failed:", err); - return res.status(403).json({ message: "Invalid token" }); + return res.status(401).json({ message: "Invalid token" });📝 Committable suggestion

💡 Codebase verification
Based on the gathered information, I can now provide a final response:
Authentication requirement for GET /all should be removed
The frontend Event.jsx component makes an unauthenticated request to fetch events (
/api/event/all), while the backend requires authentication. This mismatch causes a functionality gap where:Recommended changes:
authenticateCustomermiddleware from the GET/allroute/createand GET/deleteroutes🔗 Analysis chain
Reconsider authentication requirement for GET /all
The current implementation requires authentication for viewing all events, which might be too restrictive. Consider whether events should be publicly viewable while keeping the booking functionality restricted to verified users (as per PR objectives).
Let's verify the requirements:
Let me gather more specific information about the authentication and event access patterns.
Let me try one more search to understand the event-related components and authentication flow better.

Replace GET /delete with DELETE method
Using GET for delete operations violates RESTful principles and can lead to unintended consequences (e.g., search engine crawlers accidentally deleting resources).

Authentication check needs enhancement
The current implementation has several areas for improvement:
Consider implementing these improvements:
const handleRegisterClick = () => { - const isAuthenticated = Boolean(Cookies.get('authToken')); + try { + const authToken = Cookies.get('authToken'); + const isVerified = Cookies.get('isVerified'); // Add verification check - if (!isAuthenticated) { - alert("Please sign in to register for the event."); - navigate('/login'); + if (!authToken || !isVerified) { + // Store current path for redirect after login + sessionStorage.setItem('redirectAfterLogin', window.location.pathname); + // Use a more user-friendly notification system + setError(isVerified ? + "Please sign in to register for the event" : + "Please verify your email before registering"); + navigate('/login'); + return; } + } catch (error) { + console.error('Error checking authentication:', error); + setError('Something went wrong. Please try again.'); + } };Also, consider adding a state management solution (like Redux or Context) to handle authentication state more robustly.

Inconsistent registration button behavior
There are two different registration buttons in the component:
This creates inconsistent user experience and potential security gaps.
Consolidate the registration functionality:
