Description

  • I did visit: http://localhost:8080/wiki/mws-docs
  • IMO the session timed out
  • I did a brwoser refresh
  • There was a 403 with no redirect

IMO it's OK that the admin session timed out after some minutes.

But as a user I would expect a redirect to a more informative site. Or create a "log message" and redirect to the main dashboard.

The log message could be: "user: admin - session timed out" or something similar

Research direction

Start by reproducing the timeout at http://localhost:8080/wiki/mws-docs, then trace the session-expiration entry point in the TypeScript application. Done means an expired session no longer leaves a 403 without guidance: it should redirect to an informative page or the main dashboard, with an appropriate log message if implemented.
