Problem summary

****************************************************************
* USERS AFFECTED:  IBM WebSphere Application Server Liberty    *
*                  and Traditional Profile users of JavaServer *
*                  Faces (JSF) Apache MyFaces 2.2              *
****************************************************************
* PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: JSF 2.2 throws a ProtectedViewException *
*                      when the Origin header is passed in the *
*                      request                                 *
****************************************************************
* RECOMMENDATION:                                              *
****************************************************************
Some browsers add the Origin header to the same origin requests.
When that happens, JSF throws a ProtectedViewException.

The ProtectedViewException will look similar to the following
snippet:

Caused by: javax.faces.application.ProtectedViewException
	at
org.apache.myfaces.lifecycle.RestoreViewExecutor.checkViewProtec
tion(RestoreViewExecutor.java:399)
	at
org.apache.myfaces.lifecycle.RestoreViewExecutor.execute(Restore
ViewExecutor.java:280)
	at
org.apache.myfaces.lifecycle.LifecycleImpl.executePhase(Lifecycl
eImpl.java:196)
	at
org.apache.myfaces.lifecycle.LifecycleImpl.execute(LifecycleImpl
.java:143)

Problem conclusion

The JSF MyFaces 2.2 code was updated to not check the Origin app
context path.
For more information and fix details, see:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MYFACES-4058

The fix is enabled by default with the following context
parameter set to false:
org.apache.myfaces.STRICT_JSF_2_ORIGIN_HEADER_APP_PATH (true /
false - default)

The fix for this APAR is currently targeted for inclusion in
WebSphere Application Server Liberty Profile fixpack 17.0.0.4
and WebSphere Application Server Traditional Profile fixpack
9.0.0.6. Please refer to the Recommended Updates page for
