      Description

      Currently, we can get the oauth2Grant.jsp page without being authenticated.
      This is not a security issue since the POST to /oauth2/authorize_submit is protected by the authentication filter.

      Yet, once logged in, a GET is called on /oauth2/authorize_submit that leads to a 404. By putting oauth2Grant.jsp behind the authentication filter, the POST will return an OAuth 2 error due to the missing parameters which is better.

      Moreover, calling a GET on /oauth2/authorize_submit should return an OAuth 2 error page with the status code 405 Method Not Allowed.
      Currently, this scenario leads to a 404:

      • Log in Nuxeo on the Chrome mobile browser
      • Open in app, we are logged in so we get the OAuth 2 grant page directly
      • Log out from Nuxeo in Chrome
      • In the app click on grant
      • Log in Nuxeo within the app

      Having an OAuth 2 error page will be better.

      Same thing for /oauth2/token.
