That's true. But we are not doing any authn/authz in our application. Its just a simple webapp that exposes 1 endpoint (put method). Any body should be able to hit that end point.
It works fine if I place my war outside tomcat installation directory and create a context from Catalina/localhost. But if I place my war inside webapps then it gives http 403 when I hit my endpoint.
