Cause: A bug in RHN Satellite code.
Consequence: When webui user's session expired, webui would return HTTP/403 error rather than redirecting the user to a login screen.
Fix: The fix seems quite clever to me.
Result: In the described situation, RHN Satellite prompts user for a new login rather than showing an HTTP/403 error.
Fix for problem described in comment #10: spacewalk.git master: 614b467c7eae6986dae3d51db129d9e416cb4411 satellite.git SATELLITE-5.4: 68d61c99fd407646e491594165c30139e2c0acdd For GET requests, after re-login we can safely redirect to the previous page. For POST requests, we need to bounce to the default URL (YourRhn.do), since: 1. After user re-logins, we use HTTP redirect to be able to return to previous page 2. Browser uses a GET method for the url provided by the redirect 3. The action which we are about to redirect to, may not allow GET Verified.
