SPRING INTEGRATION DEPENDENCY SWEEP ACROSS THE STACK

Spring Integration shipped five dependency bumps overnight, touching logging, testing, Hibernate, and Groovy across development and runtime.

JUnit jumped to 6.1.1 [1], Checker Framework to 4.2.1 [2], and Log4j to 2.26.1 [3] in a coordinated maintenance wave. The Log4j patch specifically improves handling for LinkageError scenarios involving LMAX, a stability fix worth noting if you run high-throughput message integrations. Development dependencies saw Hibernate bump to 7.4.3.Final [4] alongside a PostgreSQL driver update, both patch-level bumps that carry reliability improvements. Groovy also ticked up to 5.0.7 [5], rounding out a release cycle focused on stability rather than new features. All five PRs merged cleanly with no breaking changes, making this a low-friction upgrade window.
