I quickly checked the code again and layer groups are indeed covered. If the user doesn't have access to any of the layers inside the group, the GWC request will return an access denied.

Kind Regards
Niels

    Hello,

    A user has full access to the layer (layer group actually).


Ah, I don't believe there is any security enabled for layer groups within GWC, but I may be wrong. Niels, do you remember, was
the data security integration covering layer groups as well?

    No other restrictions. It looks like  "Enable data security" has
    no effect at all. Geoserver version is 2.8. Any idea what to test
    next?


Just to make sure in case the layer group guess is not the actual cause, you are making requests from a browser that is not
logged into GeoServer as admin in another window right?

Cheers
Andrea
