All good things must come to an end, and for the 1.x line of Spring Boot that means we will need to cease maintenance twelve months from today, on Aug 1st 2019. We will keep publishing occasional 1.5.x maintenance releases up until that point and will then end the branch. Existing Spring Boot 1.x users should plan accordingly to ensure that they have upgraded to the latest 2.x version before that date. Please also note that Spring Boot 2.0 and above requires Java 8+, so if you're running Java 6 or 7 you should also plan on upgrading your JDK. For detailed instructions on what you'll need to do…

CVE-2018-1270 reported last week was unfortunately not fully addressed in the 4.3.x branch of the Spring Framework. Spring Framework 4.3.16 has been released today, so we've decided to also release Spring Boot 1.5.12 to help people upgrade easily. This release includes just 3 fixed issues, but should be considered a priority upgrade for all existing Spring Boot 1.5 users. Spring Boot 2.0 users are not affected and should use the existing 2.0.1 release. Project Page | GitHub | Issues | Documentation | Stack Overflow | Gitter

It has also been possible to specify property names in different forms. For example, person.first-name, person.firstName and PERSON_FIRSTNAME can all be used interchangeably. We call this feature “relaxed binding”. Unfortunately, in Spring Boot 1.x, “relaxed binding” turned out to be a little bit too relaxed. It was quite hard to define exactly what the binding rules were and when specific formats could be used. We also started to get reports of issues…
