Description

Implement a REST API call to reload options from DB. But add anti-DOS protection to it, because it must be not authenticated (because it should be possible to change the login credentials also).

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are mentioned. Start by locating the REST API and database-options code, then determine how an unauthenticated reload can also update login credentials while resisting denial-of-service abuse. Done means the endpoint exists, supports the stated credential-change use case, and has explicit anti-DOS protection.
