🦉 Allocation of Resources Without Limits or Throttling

[bwappsec]

This upgrade includes a major version jump for Spring Boot from 2.7.x to 3.x (note: target version 4.0.0 is not a valid release, analysis is based on the official 3.x migration path). This is a HIGH risk migration that requires significant developer effort and cannot be merged without careful planning and code modification.

Top 3 Most Impactful Upgrades

• org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web@2.7.15 → 4.0.0 (Analyzed as 3.x)
• com.fasterxml.jackson. @2.13.5 → @2.18.6*
• org.springdoc:springdoc-openapi-ui@1.6.8 → @1.7.0

1. Spring Boot Starter Web (HIGH)

The upgrade to Spring Boot 3.x introduces several major breaking changes that require code and environment updates.

Key Breaking Changes:

• Java 17 Required: Spring Boot 3.0 requires Java 17 as the minimum JDK version. Applications must be migrated from Java 8 or 11. [2, 4, 5, 7]
• Jakarta EE Namespace Migration: All Java EE APIs have moved from the javax.* namespace to jakarta.*. This is a significant breaking change that requires updating all related imports in the application code (e.g., javax.servlet to jakarta.servlet). [6, 13, 17, 33]
• Spring Framework 6: This release is built on Spring Framework 6, which introduces its own set of breaking changes, including updates to Spring Security and the removal of deprecated classes. [3, 13]
• Configuration Properties: Numerous configuration properties have been renamed or removed. Spring provides a spring-boot-properties-migrator module to help identify and temporarily migrate these properties during development. [3, 15]
• Removed APIs: All classes, methods, and properties that were deprecated in Spring Boot 2.x have been removed in this release. [3, 28]
