The upgrade of org.springframework.boot:spring-boot-starter-web from 2.7.8 to 3.5.12 is a high-risk major version change that requires significant developer action. The upgrade to jackson-databind-nullable is low-risk.

Spring Boot 2.7.8 → 3.5.12 (High Risk)

This upgrade crosses a major version boundary (2.x to 3.x) and introduces several substantial breaking changes. Direct migration will require code and environment updates.

Key Breaking Changes:

• Java 17 Prerequisite: Spring Boot 3.0 requires Java 17 as a minimum version. Applications must be running on JDK 17 or later before this upgrade can be applied.
• Migration to Jakarta EE: This is the most impactful change. Spring Boot 3 uses Jakarta EE 9+, which renames all Java EE packages from javax.* to jakarta.*. For example, javax.persistence.Entity becomes jakarta.persistence.Entity. This will require updating import statements throughout the application code.
• Spring Security 6: The upgrade brings in Spring Security 6, which has its own breaking changes. For instance, authorization is now applied to every servlet dispatch type by default.
• Configuration Property Changes: Numerous configuration properties have been renamed or removed. A dedicated spring-boot-properties-migrator module is available to help identify and temporarily migrate these properties at runtime.
• Removed Code: All APIs and properties that were deprecated in Spring Boot 2.x have been removed in version 3.0.

Recommendation:

This is a major migration effort. Before merging, developers must:

1. Upgrade the environment and build tools to use JDK 17.
2. Perform a codebase-wide migration of javax.* packages to jakarta.*. Tools like OpenRewrite or IDE features can assist with this.
3. Review and update application configuration files for renamed properties.
4. Consult the official Spring Boot 3.0 Migration Guide for a complete list of changes.

jackson-databind-nullable 0.2.7 → 0.2.10 (Low Risk)

This is a minor patch upgrade. The release notes for this range indicate dependency updates and bug fixes with no documented breaking changes.
