@5Amogh The current implementation returns 200 OK for OPTIONS requests, which is the correct behavior for CORS preflight requests. Could you please check it and revert back to the original implementation? As per my understanding, if we return 403 for invalid origins, the browser displays a confusing error message. When we return 200 OK without CORS headers, the browser shows a clear and correct message: ‘CORS policy: No ‘Access-Control-Allow-Origin’ header is present

if (origin == null) {
logger.warn("BLOCKED - OPTIONS request without Origin header | Method: {} | URI: {}", method, uri);
response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_FORBIDDEN, "OPTIONS request requires Origin header");
return;
}
if (!isOriginAllowed(origin)) {
logger.warn("BLOCKED - Unauthorized Origin | Origin: {} | Method: {} | URI: {}", origin, method, uri);
response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_FORBIDDEN, "Origin not allowed");
return;
}
} else {
logger.warn("Origin [{}] is NOT allowed. CORS headers NOT added.", origin);
}

if ("OPTIONS".equalsIgnoreCase(request.getMethod())) {
logger.info("OPTIONS request - skipping JWT validation");
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
return;
// For non-OPTIONS requests, validate origin if present
if (origin != null && !isOriginAllowed(origin)) {
logger.warn("BLOCKED - Unauthorized Origin | Origin: {} | Method: {} | URI: {}", origin, method, uri);
response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_FORBIDDEN, "Origin not allowed");
return;
}
}

// Determine request path/context for later checks
String path = request.getRequestURI();
String contextPath = request.getContextPath();

// Set CORS headers and handle OPTIONS request only if origin is valid and allowed
if (origin != null && isOriginAllowed(origin)) {
addCorsHeaders(response, origin);
logger.info("Origin Validated | Origin: {} | Method: {} | URI: {}", origin, method, uri);

if ("OPTIONS".equalsIgnoreCase(method)) {
// OPTIONS (preflight) - respond with full allowed methods
response.setStatus(HttpServletResponse.SC_OK);
return;
}
} else {
logger.warn("Origin [{}] is NOT allowed. CORS headers NOT added.", origin);
