Description

Hi,
In version 4.11.0, we get a 403 Forbidden error with the message “Oops… there was a problem during the request. …” while making an ajax request as an anonymous user like sorting a column (in any report).
When the LoginLDAP plugin is deactivated the error no longer occurs.
Do we need to change anything in the plugin configuration to fix this problem?

Research direction

Start by reproducing an anonymous AJAX request such as sorting a column in a report with LoginLDAP enabled, then repeat it with the plugin deactivated for comparison. Done means anonymous report requests no longer return the reported 403 error while LoginLDAP remains enabled.
