Description

Sometimes HTTP 403 response fails due to actual view returning 400 — likely because of how the random password is being generated.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the test `test register without invite when disabled returns forbidden` and trace the view logic to identify why a random password generation causes a 400 instead of 403 response.
