Spring Boot cleaned up stale InfluxDB auto-configuration references that have been dead code since 3.4.0, ensuring the 4.0 release docs match reality.

Spring Boot removed dangling references to InfluxDB auto-configuration from its NoSQL documentation [1], closing a gap between the reference guide and the actual codebase where the auto-configuration was dropped in 3.4.0 [2]. The fix merged cleanly into both the main branch and 4.1.x, keeping the docs fleet in sync [3]. Elsewhere in the ecosystem, Spring Security bumped httpclient5 to 5.6.3 to fix a resource management defect [4], while Spring LDAP picked up commons-codec 1.22.1 on the dependency rotation [5]. Spring Data Elasticsearch consolidated expression handling in SimpleElasticsearchPersistentEntity by standardizing on ValueExpressions [6], tightening the API surface.

Action items

→ Review Spring Boot 4.0 release notes for other doc/code mismatches before RC spring-projects/spring-boot [plan]
→ Pull httpclient5 5.6.3 in your next Spring Security bump spring-projects/spring-security [monitor]
