Hi,

we recently ran into an issue that the webconsole in an application was 
accessible with the default user credentials because the configuration was not 
picked up for some reason. Therefore the following question:


Security for the web console is either setup by adding a configuration or by 
using a WebConsoleSecurityProvider, if I understand it correctly both 
mechanisms are optional and loaded dynamically. Doesn't that mean that if those 
configs/services are temporarily not (yet) available, which can happen even 
during normal operation, e.g. during application startup, access to the 
webconsole is not secured anymore? If yes, wouldn't it be more appropriate to 
make the configuration mandatory instead of optional?


Best regards,

Thomas
