I’d like to a use a Controller provided in a module but the Controller is not secured. I don’t want to edit the source of the module as this will become a maintenance overhead. Does Play offer any kind of solution to this problem?

The brute-force approach to this is to not include the module’s routes (or at least not allow direct access to the controllers you want to secure), and instead allow access to the module only by going through one of your own controllers. Access control can then be applied in your own controller.
