fix: fetch override to attach XSRF token to fix csrfProtection issue (#…

…1014)

During the migration from Axios to fetch, we overlooked the fact that Axios automatically handled
CSRF tokens, while fetch does not. When CSRF protection was turned on, requests were failing with an
"invalid CSRF token" error for users accessing the app even via HTTPS. This commit
overrides fetch to ensure that the CSRF token is included in all requests.
