Describe the issue

When trying to login to the application from a browser (Firefox in my case), if you input the wrong username/password, you will get the HTTP Status Code of Method Not Allowed instead of something saying the username/password are incorrect.

Expected behaviour

  • I would expect a more appropriate message back such as Invalid username and/or password

Actual behaviour

  • Get response message back as Method Not Allowed

Steps to reproduce the issue

  1. Go to AudioBookShelf instance
  2. Type in random characters for username / password
  3. Click Submit.
  4. Get response message back as Method Not Allowed

Logs

[2023-01-28 15:00:36] WARN: [Auth] Failed login attempt 1 of 10 from <REDACTED-IP> (Auth.js:135)

Audiobookshelf version

2.2.12

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Abs does not return any error message of "Method Not Allowed". This must be coming from your server.

Tested on Brave & Firefox with v2.2.12

I'm running behind Nginx on a Kubneretes cluster. Could be how nginx is processing the request. Only happens on incorrect credentials though.

Abs is returning a 401 status code on invalid credentials. A quick search returned https://github.com/kubernetes/ingress-nginx/issues/2292

That may be relevant here. This doesn't seem like an issue with Abs now but let me know if you find something
