Installing 2.7.0 results in "HTTP code 500" in API

[HovKlan-DH]

Describe the bug
After installing the newest 2.7.0 version on my Netgate 4200 then I can no longer control the API and I get HTTP code 500.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

• Make sure I do not have any API installed from previously:
  • pkg-static delete pfSense-pkg-RESTAPI
• Install newest version for my router with version 25.11-RELEASE (amd64) installed:
  • pkg-static -C /dev/null add https://github.com/pfrest/pfSense-pkg-RESTAPI/releases/latest/download/pfSense-25.11-pkg-RESTAPI.pkg
• Querying this end-point (which works with previous version): /api/v2/firewall/rule will give this error:

{"code":500,"status":"internal server error","response_id":"ENDPOINT_RECEIVED_UNEXPECTED_ERROR","message":"Undefined constant ``\n#0 \/usr\/local\/pkg\/RESTAPI\/Core\/BaseTraits.inc(56): constant()\n#1 \/usr\/local\/pkg\/RESTAPI\/Core\/Auth.inc(297): RESTAPI\\Core\\Auth::log()\n#2 \/usr\/local\/pkg\/RESTAPI\/Core\/Endpoint.inc(615): RESTAPI\\Core\\Auth::attempt_multi_auth()\n#3 \/usr\/local\/pkg\/RESTAPI\/Core\/Endpoint.inc(1048): RESTAPI\\Core\\Endpoint->check_auth()\n#4 \/usr\/local\/www\/api\/v2\/firewall\/rule\/index.php(9): RESTAPI\\Core\\Endpoint->process_request()\n#5 {main}","data":[]}

Hmm if you go into the REST API settings within the UI and hit save does it start working again?

Yes, that fixes the problem :-)

Thanks! Seems like it's not automatically applying defaults for new settings for some, I'll get a patch out for this asap.
