…ng Boot 4 In Spring Security 7 (used by Spring Boot 4), AntPathRequestMatcher was deprecated in favor of PathPatternRequestMatcher for servlet-based matching. Changes: - UaaMetricsFilter: Replace AntPathRequestMatcher with PathPatternRequestMatcher - BackwardsCompatibleTokenEndpointAuthenticationFilter: Update field type and import - LimitedModeUaaFilter: Update field type and constructor usage - PasswordChangeUiRequiredFilter: Update field types All files were already using PathPatternRequestMatcher.withDefaults().matcher() for instantiation, this commit updates the type declarations and imports to match.
Several Spring classes were removed or moved in Spring Framework 7: 1. Base64 and Utf8 from spring-security-crypto.codec - Replaced with java.util.Base64 and StandardCharsets.UTF_8 - Updated UserNotFoundEvent to use Java standard APIs 2. NestedServletException from spring-web - Replaced with plain ServletException - Updated OAuth2ClientContextFilter 3. PortResolver and PortResolverImpl from spring-security-web - Removed from Spring Security 7 API - Updated UaaSavedRequestCache.doesRequestMatch() signature - Updated InvitationsController to use single-arg DefaultSavedRequest constructor 4. WebMvcAutoConfiguration package moved - Removed unused import from WebConfig (only used in JavaDoc)
Spring Security 7 upgraded from OpenSAML 4 to OpenSAML 5 and renamed all OpenSaml4* classes to OpenSaml5*: - OpenSaml4AuthenticationRequestResolver → OpenSaml5AuthenticationRequestResolver - OpenSaml4LogoutRequestResolver → OpenSaml5LogoutRequestResolver - OpenSaml4LogoutResponseResolver → OpenSaml5LogoutResponseResolver - OpenSamlLogoutRequestValidator → OpenSaml5LogoutRequestValidator - OpenSamlLogoutResponseValidator → OpenSaml5LogoutResponseValidator - OpenSamlMetadataResolver → OpenSaml5MetadataResolver Files updated: - SamlAuthenticationFilterConfig.java - SamlLogoutRequestValidator.java - SamlLogoutResponseValidator.java - SamlMetadataEndpoint.java - SamlMetadataEntityDescriptorCustomizer.java
Spring Security 7 changed AuthorizationManager.authorize() to return AuthorizationResult (nullable) instead of AuthorizationDecision. AuthorizationDecision is a subtype of AuthorizationResult. Changes: - AuthorizationManagersUtils: Update authorize() return type and handle AuthorizationResult - SelfCheckAuthorizationManager: Update authorize() return type Both classes now properly implement the new interface signature while continuing to return AuthorizationDecision instances.
1. SAML API changes: - getAssertingPartyDetails() → getAssertingPartyMetadata() - AssertingPartyDetails → AssertingPartyMetadata - withRelyingPartyRegistration() → from() - assertingPartyDetails() → assertingPartyMetadata() 2. MediaType sorting: - MediaType.sortByQualityValue() replaced with MediaType.QUALITY_VALUE_COMPARATOR - Updated DefaultOAuth2ExceptionRenderer and ConvertingExceptionView 3. HTTP client timeout API: - Changed to Duration-based API (setConnectTimeout(Duration)) - Updated UaaHttpRequestUtils 4. DaoAuthenticationProvider constructor: - Now requires UserDetailsService and PasswordEncoder in constructor - Removed setUserDetailsService() and setPasswordEncoder() calls 5. RequestMappingHandlerAdapter: - Removed setIgnoreDefaultModelOnRedirect() (always true in Spring 6+) - Cleaned up WebConfig 6. AuthorizationManager with @nullable: - Added @nullable annotation to Authentication in Supplier parameter - Updated AuthorizationManagersUtils and SelfCheckAuthorizationManager
1. AuthorizationManager.authorize() signature: - Use wildcard `? extends @nullable Authentication` in Supplier parameter - Updated AuthorizationManagersUtils and SelfCheckAuthorizationManager 2. DaoAuthenticationProvider constructor: - Constructor now only takes UserDetailsService - PasswordEncoder set via setPasswordEncoder() method - Updated ClientDetailsAuthenticationProvider 3. DefaultSavedRequest constructor: - No longer takes PortResolver (removed in Spring Security 7) - Updated UaaSavedRequestCache.ClientRedirectSavedRequest 4. HttpComponentsClientHttpRequestFactory.setConnectTimeout(): - Method removed in Spring 6.2 - Connection timeout now configured on HttpClient directly - Added comment explaining migration path 5. MediaType sorting: - Use MediaType.sortBySpecificityAndQuality() instead of comparators - Updated DefaultOAuth2ExceptionRenderer and ConvertingExceptionView
MediaType.sortBySpecificityAndQuality() and comparator constants don't exist in Spring 6. Use MimeTypeUtils.sortBySpecificity() instead. Updated: - DefaultOAuth2ExceptionRenderer - ConvertingExceptionView
1. Remove deprecated configuration methods: - setUseSuffixPatternMatch() removed (suffix matching always disabled in Spring 6) - setXssProtectionEnabled() removed (XSS protection header no longer supported) 2. Fix SAML RelyingPartyRegistration builder: - withRelyingPartyRegistration() removed, use withRegistrationId() instead - Rebuild entire registration with all properties from original 3. Fix method references and overrides: - Use lambda instead of method reference for AssertingPartyMetadata - Update DefaultResponseErrorHandler.handleError() signature (now requires URI and HttpMethod) - Update SelfCheckAuthorizationManager.verify() signature (@nullable wildcard) - Remove @OverRide from doesRequestMatch() (method removed from parent class) Updated: - SpringServletXmlBeansConfiguration - SpringServletXmlFiltersConfiguration - UaaRelyingPartyRegistrationResolver - UaaDelegatingLogoutSuccessHandler - RemoteTokenServices - SelfCheckAuthorizationManager - UaaSavedRequestCache
ErrorPage class location changed in Spring Boot, still investigating correct import. Server module compiles successfully (28 errors fixed).
ErrorPage class was removed in Spring Boot 3.0. Error pages now need to be configured via application.properties or ErrorPageRegistrar bean instead. Also fixed addAdditionalTomcatConnectors() which was renamed to addConnectorCustomizers() in Spring Boot 3+. Changes: - Removed ErrorPage imports and usage (to be configured via properties) - Replaced addAdditionalTomcatConnectors() with addConnectorCustomizers() - Added comments explaining the API changes Note: Error page configuration will need to be added to application.properties: server.error.path=/error Custom error pages for specific status codes may need custom ErrorController All modules now compile successfully!
Spring Boot 3.5.12 BOM manages spring-retry 2.0.12, but the dependency management plugin was not resolving the version properly when the dependency string was incomplete. Added explicit version to libraries.springRetry to fix bootWar task dependency resolution failure. dependencies.gradle:106 # Conflicts: # dependencies.gradle
Spring 6 changed the ResponseErrorHandler.handleError() signature to include URI and HttpMethod parameters. Updated anonymous implementations in OAuth2ErrorHandlerTests to use the new signature. Fixed 2 failing unit tests. model/src/test/java/org/cloudfoundry/identity/uaa/oauth/client/http/OAuth2ErrorHandlerTests.java:127,182
Updated test code for Spring Security 7 API changes: - Replaced getAssertingPartyDetails() with getAssertingPartyMetadata() - Replaced assertingPartyDetails() builder with assertingPartyMetadata() - Fixed AssertingPartyMetadata imports (now top-level class, not nested) - Replaced AssertJ containsKey with containsKeys (plural) - Replaced AssertJ doesNotContainKey with doesNotContainKeys (plural) - Fixed PathPatternRequestMatcher usage in UaaMetricsFilterTests - Replaced Spring Security Base64 with java.util.Base64 in UaaTestAccounts Reduced test compilation errors from 122 to 72. 40 test files modified across SAML, OAuth, and utility test classes.
Updated test code to match Spring 6 API changes: - OAuth2RestTemplate.doExecute() now requires String uriTemplate parameter - OAuth2ErrorHandler.handleError() now requires URI and HttpMethod parameters Fixed 14 test compilation errors in model module test classes. Files: - model/src/test/java/org/cloudfoundry/identity/uaa/oauth/client/OAuth2RestTemplateTests.java - model/src/test/java/org/cloudfoundry/identity/uaa/oauth/client/http/OAuth2ErrorHandlerTests.java
- Fixed Map.containsKey() vs AssertJ.containsKey() confusion - Map objects use containsKey() (singular) - AssertJ assertions also use containsKey() (singular), not containsKeys - Removed setIgnoreDefaultModelOnRedirect() calls (removed in Spring 6+) - Spring 6+ always ignores default model on redirect by default Reduced test compilation errors from 72 to 36. Modified 19 test files.
- Fixed TestAuthManager.authorize() signature for Spring Security 7 - Return type: AuthorizationResult (not AuthorizationDecision) - Authentication parameter: Supplier<? extends @nullable Authentication> - Fixed AssertJ assertions with multiple keys to chain individual assertions - Fixed HttpHeaders assertions to use direct Map methods instead of AssertJ - HttpHeaders.containsKey() for presence checks - HttpHeaders.get() with isEqualTo() for value checks Reduced test compilation errors from 72 to 30. Files modified: - AuthorizationManagersUtilsTests.java - ExternalOAuthProviderConfiguratorTests.java - ExternalOAuthAuthenticationManagerTest.java
Fixed all remaining server test compilation errors: - Updated HttpHeaders assertions to use .get().isNotNull() pattern - Fixed ResponseErrorHandler.handleError() signatures (added URI, HttpMethod params) - Fixed doesRequestMatch() calls (removed deprecated null parameter) - Disambiguated AbstractAuthenticationToken constructor calls with explicit cast - Removed throws Exception from SecurityBuilder.build() implementations - Added missing GrantedAuthority imports Server module tests now compile successfully (0 errors). UAA module tests still have errors to be fixed in future commits. Modified 9 test files.
- Replace Spring Security Base64 with java.util.Base64 - Update Base64.encode() calls to Base64.getEncoder().encode() - Remove PortResolverImpl (removed in Spring Security 7) - Update DefaultSavedRequest constructor (single parameter now) - Fix DefaultSavedRequest anonymous subclass pattern - Update ResponseErrorHandler.handleError() signatures with URI and HttpMethod - Remove Spring Boot autoconfiguration excludes (classes no longer exist) - Update UaaBootServerCustomizerTest to test new connector customizer approach
Fixes NullPointerException in DecorateProcessor causing all server tests to fail. Version 3.4.0 has compatibility issues with Thymeleaf 3.1.x.
Update remaining handleError() method signatures to include URI and HttpMethod parameters.
Update OpenSAML from 4.0.1 to 5.1.2 to resolve compatibility issues with Spring Security 7 and Spring Boot 4. Changes: - Update opensaml version to 5.1.2 in dependencies.gradle - Fix package imports: net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.* → net.shibboleth.shared.* - Update SAML20AssertionValidator constructor calls to new 6-parameter signature (added AssertionValidator parameter) - Remove invalid @OverRide on BearerSubjectConfirmationValidator.validateAddress() - Replace ValidationContext.getValidationFailureMessage() with generic message (method removed in OpenSAML 5) The OpenSAML 4 → 5 migration addresses NoSuchMethodError for XMLObjectProviderRegistrySupport.getParserPool() which was blocking SAML authentication tests.
Update test files to use OpenSAML 5 package structure: - net.shibboleth.utilities.java.support.xml → net.shibboleth.shared.xml Affects SerializeSupport and ElementSupport imports in SAML test utilities.
Remove @DependsOnDatabaseInitialization from dataSource bean to resolve circular dependency: - DataSource annotated with @DependsOnDatabaseInitialization depends on Flyway - Flyway depends on DataSource to run migrations - This creates unresolvable circular reference in Spring Boot 4 In Spring Boot 4, Flyway automatically manages its dependency ordering with DataSource, making the explicit annotation unnecessary and problematic. Error fixed: UnsatisfiedDependencyException with message "Requested bean is currently in creation: Is there an unresolvable circular reference or an asynchronous initialization dependency?"
Add @ExtendWith(MockitoExtension.class) to InitializerSetUp nested class that has its own @mock fields. In newer Mockito versions (brought by Spring Boot 4), nested test classes with @mock fields need their own MockitoExtension to properly manage MockitoSession lifecycle. Error fixed: UnfinishedMockingSessionException: Previous MockitoSession was not concluded with 'finishMocking()'.
Spring Security 7 changed LoginUrlAuthenticationEntryPoint to generate relative URLs by default instead of absolute URLs. Updated test expectations from 'http://localhost/login' to '/login'.
Spring Framework 7 changes: 1. LoginUrlAuthenticationEntryPoint now generates relative URLs by default instead of absolute URLs. Updated CSRF redirect assertions from 'http://localhost/login' to '/login'. 2. MockHttpServletResponse.getCookie() no longer automatically parses Set-Cookie headers added via addHeader(). Updated cookie expiry test to check Set-Cookie header directly, which is more accurate since that's what browsers receive.
Thymeleaf layout dialect 3.3.0 has a NullPointerException bug in DecorateProcessor with newer Groovy/Java versions causing template processing failures. Version 4.0.1 fixes this issue. Fixes template errors in AccountsController, ChangeEmailController, ChangePasswordController and other view tests.
This is blocker and I just want to check what else will be left as issues. But this is hard blocker for sure!
The GOOD_CERT constant was missing a hyphen in the closing tag: -----END CERTIFICATE---- should be -----END CERTIFICATE----- This caused BouncyCastle PEM parser to fail with 'END CERTIFICATE not found' error. Fixes 2 test failures in KeyWithCertTest.
…binding Spring Boot 4 changed parameter binding behavior. When a @RequestParam parameter is marked @nullable but uses primitive boolean type, Spring throws 400 Bad Request if the parameter is missing, instead of allowing the controller to handle it. Changed: - InvitationsController.acceptInvitation: boolean -> Boolean - AccountsController.createAccountSubmitForm: boolean -> Boolean - Updated doesUserConsent checks to use Boolean.TRUE.equals() This fixes 24 test failures where tests expected 422 but got 400. Root cause: Primitive types cannot be null, so Spring Boot 4 rejects the request during parameter binding when optional params are missing.
Spring 6 changed how model attributes work with redirects. Model attributes added before a redirect are no longer automatically available in MockMvc test assertions. Changed processErrorReload to: - Accept RedirectAttributes parameter - Use redirectAttributes.addAttribute() to add params to redirect URL - These show up as request parameters in the redirected request This fixes 9 InvitationsController test failures that expected model attributes to be present in redirect responses. Root cause: Spring 6 requires explicit use of RedirectAttributes.addAttribute() for attributes to be passed through redirects and visible in MockMvc tests.
Spring Security 7 replaced AntPathRequestMatcher with PathPatternRequestMatcher, which matches against the full request URI including servlet context path. This broke URL pattern matching when context path is present (e.g. "/uaa"). Wrap the request to strip context path before matching so patterns like "/authenticate/**" match requests to "/uaa/authenticate" correctly.
Spring Security 7's PathPatternRequestMatcher uses Spring's PathPattern
which requires single braces {var} for path variables, not double braces
{{var}} which was used with AntPathRequestMatcher.
Changed /oauth/token/alias/{{registrationId}} to {registrationId}
to fix "Not allowed to nest variable captures" error.
Spring Boot 4's PathPatternRequestMatcher validates that context path must be a prefix of request URI. The previous fix stripped the context from URI but didn't override getContextPath() and getServletPath(), causing validation to fail. Override both methods in the wrapper to return empty context and the stripped URI as servlet path. Also fix test that was double-adding the context path.
PathPatternRequestMatcher matches against request.getRequestURI(), not request.getPathInfo(). Tests were only setting pathInfo, causing the matcher to check against empty/default URI instead of the intended path. Set both requestURI and pathInfo to properly simulate servlet behavior where PathPatternRequestMatcher can extract the path for matching.
Spring Security 7 introduced AbstractValidatingPasswordEncoder as the base
class for DelegatingPasswordEncoder. This new base class rejects empty
passwords in its matches() method by checking rawPassword.length() == 0,
returning false immediately without delegating to the actual encoder.
For clients with CLIENT_AUTH_EMPTY (e.g., cf client), the stored password
is "{noop}" (empty string encoded with noop prefix) and the presented
password is an empty string. In Spring Security 6, passwordEncoder.matches("", "{noop}")
would delegate to the noop encoder and return true. In Spring Security 7,
it returns false due to the empty password check in AbstractValidatingPasswordEncoder.
This fix adds special case handling: when credentials are empty and the stored
password is exactly "{noop}", bypass the password encoder and allow authentication
to proceed. This maintains backward compatibility for public clients that don't
require credentials.
…egistrationResolverTests Spring Boot 4's PathPatternRequestMatcher requires both requestURI and pathInfo to be set for proper path matching. The resolver uses PathPatternRequestMatcher to extract the registrationId variable from the request path. Tests were only setting pathInfo, causing the matcher to fail and return null.

I have worked on researching the spring boot 4 migration of uaa.
Current State:
Conclusions:
Jackson:
spring-boot-jackson2. I was given a recipe that does the spring migration without Jackson and this is the one that I have used as a base. I was suggested to do Spring Boot 4 without Jackson, as it causes too many issues (though, as we can see the spring migration itself also does..)OpenSAML 5:
Migration to boot 4 currently seems to be a dead end due to Open SAML 5 FIPS compliance.
#Bonus research:
Java 25:
bcgit/bc-java#1287 (comment) - from this it seems that FIPS certification can take up to 14 months, at least this is how long it has taken before. This is actually very good information, as previously we just didn't know and could not set any expectations.
