AFAIK this is CORS preflight request. What do you expect to happen if OAuth
filter will pass it through ? I think it will fail because no proper CORS
response will be returned to the browser, or does it work if you modify the
filter as you suggested ?
> OAuthRequestFilter.java should ignore HTTP OPTIONS verb

> Components: JAX-RS Security
> Affects Versions: 2.6.2, 2.7.0
> Reporter: Steven Tippetts
> Priority: Critical
>
> In handleRequest of OAuthRequestFilter.java at line 54 something similar to
> the following should be added:
> if (((String)m.get(Message.HTTP_REQUEST_METHOD)).equals("OPTIONS")) return
> null;
> This will skip any HTTP OPTIONS verb requests. I'm getting the OPTIONS verb
