Hi: I'm having a strange behaviour when using realm in Tomcat 7 ( 7.0.16) with browser tabs My web app has some protected resources ( with <security-constraint> tag in web.xml ) by a realm. I'm using FORM method in <auth-method> tag. So, i've got my own login page :
<html> <form method='post' action='j_security_check'> <input type='text' name='j_username'> <input type='password' name='j_password'> <input type='submit' name='send'> </form> </html> Steps: 1) I open a tab in my browser and access to a protected resource http://localhost:8080/myapp/protected/file_one.properties So, login page is shown 2) I open a new tab in the browser and access to another protected resource http://localhost:8080/myapp/protected/file_two.properties So, login page is shown 3) Back first tab , and authenticate with a valid user. The resource shown is file_two.properties (??) 4) Go to second tab, and authenticate with the same valid user ( or another valid user ) and an error happens State HTTP 404 - /myapp/j_security_check I know that session is shared between tabs but I think there are two rare results : - on step 3, it's returned a different resource than requested . - on step 4 , it's returned a 404 error If this is a right behaviour , how I can avoid that an user can perform this steps ?
