Change your getImage method to this:

const getImage = () => {
  Axios.get("http://localhost:4000/getAllPosts", {
      responseType: "arraybuffer"
    })
    .then((res) => {
    const base64 = btoa(
      new Uint8Array(res.data).reduce(
        (data, byte) => data + String.fromCharCode(byte),
        ''
      )
    )
    setImage(base64)
  })
}

Usage:

<img src={`data:;base64,${image}`} />

// or

<img src={`data:image/jpeg;charset=utf-8;base64,${image}`} />

It's not really a good practice to mess up binary data with metadata. Better to have an endpoint that would return binary and right headers for browser to display it like that:

<img src="https://yourapi.com/image/2"/>

Sometimes you want to add header for auth etc. – shaioz Feb 01 '23 at 13:32

add this in your try block after the request:

if (res) {
                const base64 = btoa(
                    new Uint8Array(res.data).reduce(
                        (data, byte) => data + String.fromCharCode(byte),
                        ''
                    )
                )
                setImage(`data:;base64,${base64}`)
            }
