Spring Boot reactive resource server backs off with custom security

By RepoJournal · Filed · About Spring

Spring Boot's reactive OAuth2 resource server auto-configuration now backs off when a custom SecurityWebFilterChain is defined, matching servlet behavior.

Spring Boot's reactive OAuth2 resource server auto-configuration previously did not back off when a custom SecurityWebFilterChain was present, unlike the servlet equivalent [1]. This commit aligns the reactive auto-configuration with the servlet behavior, introducing the @ConditionalOnDefault annotation to handle the back-off.

Spring Kafka fixed an assignability ordering issue in its delegate map [2]. The TreeMap iteration order was undefined due to a non-transitive comparator; the lookup could return a more general delegate even when an exact one was registered. The fix ensures the most specific delegate is selected.

Spring Boot also fixed a bug in AppendableByteArray where a high surrogate left unconsumed by the encoder was dropped between append calls, causing surrogate pairs written a character at a time by JsonValueWriter to be corrupted [3]. Spring Session prepared for its 4.2 development version [4].
