It works only when the backend server is hosted on the local device.

I've connected to the server on the same node. But I'm using hostname instead of "localhost".

and my server config is

[server]
port = 4545
host = xxxx

Basically only localhost, 127.0.0.1 and [::1] are recognized. Otherwise you'd have to make sure that the browser sends the exactly same client host and the remote host.
