After some security updates to the REST-API, guest users were no longer able to view host data on monitoring endpoints due to insufficient permissions. There is a differentiation between 'monitoring' and 'setup' endpoints with regards to permissions which was previously not taken into account.

This werk addresses this issue by allowing monitoring read access for guest users.
