Spring Boot 2.3.12.RELEASE was released on 10th Jun 2021 and in July it's been removed from "spring initializr" page (https://start.spring.io/).
https://spring.io/blog/2021/06/10/spring-boot-2-3-12-release-available-now
My questions:
Is 2.3.x deprecated already?
If I want to generate a new Spring Boot project for version 2.3.12, how can I do it? It no longer can be done from "spring initializr" page.
Is 2.3.x deprecated already?
Yes. Spring Boot 2.3.x was removed from https://start.spring.io as 2.3.x reached the end of its open source support period on 15 May 2021.
If I want to generate a new Spring Boot project for version 2.3.12, how can I do it?
Ideally, you shouldn't. Any existing projects that are using Spring Boot 2.3.x should be updated to 2.4.x or 2.5.x as soon as possible and new projects should use 2.4.x or 2.5.x from the outset.
If you have to start a new project using an unsupported version of Spring Boot, you could generate the project and then modify the version in the pom.xml or build.gradle file to downgrade the version. This may get harder to do the longer the version has been out of support.
If you are using Spring Cloud, you can use start.spring.io's info endpoint to help with version mappings:
…
"spring-cloud": {
"2020.0.0": "Spring Boot >=2.4.0.M4 and <=2.4.0",
"2020.0.0-M3": "Spring Boot >=2.4.0.M1 and <=2.4.0.M1",
"2020.0.0-M4": "Spring Boot >=2.4.0.M2 and <=2.4.0-M3",
"2020.0.3": "Spring Boot >=2.4.1 and <2.5.4-SNAPSHOT",
"2020.0.4-SNAPSHOT": "Spring Boot >=2.5.4-SNAPSHOT",
"Hoxton.SR12": "Spring Boot >=2.2.0.RELEASE and <2.4.0.M1"
},
…
The above indicates that Spring Cloud Hoxton.SR12 should be used with Spring Boot 2.3.x (and 2.2.x).
Note that Spring Cloud Hoxton is also out of its OSS support period so you really should be looking to upgrade to Spring Boot 2.4.x or 2.5.x and Spring Cloud 2020.0.x.

i am trying to update my spring version to 2.7.3 for my existing spring microservice project but
Your project setup is incompatible with our requirements due to following reasons:
Spring Boot [2.7.3] is not compatible with this Spring Cloud release train
Action:
Consider applying the following actions:
Change Spring Boot version to one of the following versions [2.4.x, 2.5.x] .
You can find the latest Spring Boot versions here [https://spring.io/projects/spring-boot#learn].
If you want to learn more about the Spring Cloud Release train compatibility, you can visit this page [https://spring.io/projects/spring-cloud#overview] and check the [Release Trains] section.
If you want to disable this check, just set the property [spring.cloud.compatibility-verifier.enabled=false]
i updated spring cloud version to the latest one but then it throws cloud hystrix version compatibility issue can some one explain how to update spring verison for existing spring boot micro service project.
Thanks.
I have spring boot project version 2.7.0.
I use the dependency-check and it reports CVE-2022-22976.
Do you know how I can solve it?
Spring security version is 5.7.1 while spring starter security version is 2.7.0.
It's a false positive that will be automatically suppressed with the upcoming release 7.1.1: https://github.com/jeremylong/DependencyCheck/issues/4563
Currently, the Spring Boot starter for Spring Security is mistaken with Spring Security itself.
Until then you'll need to suppress it manually with something like
<suppress base="true">
<notes><![CDATA[
FP per issue #4563
]]></notes>
<packageUrl regex="true">^pkg:maven/org\.springframework\.boot/spring-boot-starter-security#.*$</packageUrl>
<cpe>cpe:/a:vmware:spring_security</cpe>
</suppress>
The spring published that:
I used spring 5.3.16, spring boot 2.2.10.RELEASE, spring cloud 2.2.10.RELEASE to use spring-cloud-netflix-zuul, so, can I just upgrade the spring version to 5.3.18, but don't upgrade other framwork?
Spring Boot 2.2.x is EOL and may contain other security fixes that affect you. Spring Boot 2.2.10.RELEASE use Spring Framework 5.2.9.RELEASE.
If you are using Spring Framework 5.3.x, this is not really a supported scenario irrespective of this CVE. You should be using Spring Framework 5.2.x. For that, we have released Spring Framework 5.2.20.
Of course, to be really safe you should upgrade to a supported version.
There is a vulnerability (https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2021-22047) discovered in spring-data-rest-webmvc which is only fixed in versions 3.4.14 and 3.5.6. Spring Boot 2.3.12 uses the version 3.3.9. Migrating to spring boot 2.4.x or above is not an option for us.
We would like to use spring-data-rest-webmvc:3.4.14, but we are not sure if it's compatible with spring boot 2.3.x.
Can we use them together?
Spring Data Rest version 3.4 and up use Spring Framework version 5.3.x.
Spring Boot 2.3 is build with Spring Framework 5.2.x.
Will it work, probably, but there are no garanties that it will keep working or work at all. Most like it will fail with some NoSuchMethodError or ClassNotFOundExceptions or other exotic expetions one gets when mixing modules/jars from different versions of a framework.
My project is built with Spring boot 1.5.10.release. We want to migrate to Apache Kafka® 2.3.0 from Apache Kafka 1.0.x.
We are currently using Spring-kafka 1.3.9.release and want to migrate to spring-kafka-2.3.0. Can we do this without changing the Spring boot version of 1.5.10.release?
I went through the Compatibility matrix but I don't see any relevant answer to my question
https://spring.io/projects/spring-kafka
No, you can't do that. Spring Kafka 2.x, as well Spring Boot 2.x, is based on Spring Framework 5.x and Java 8. You can't mix so critical versions in Spring Boot 1.5.x.
It is really better to rely on the Spring Boot dependencies management. That way you can be sure that all the artifacts brought by Spring Boot are tested together.
