Spring Security OAuth 2.0 Roadmap Update
|
Note
|
See the latest announcement on Announcing the Spring Authorization Server. This post is a follow-up to Next Generation OAuth 2.0 Support with Spring Security |
Current State
In the Spring Security 5.x release train, we’ve endeavored to replace and simplify the feature set found in the Spring Security OAuth 2.x legacy project. In the process, we’ve also added numerous new features, including support for OpenID Connect 1.0.
We are pleased to announce that as of the 5.2 release, we are very close to feature parity with the client and resource server legacy support. What remains is quite minimal, and we fully anticipate announcing feature parity as part of the 5.3 release.
We would like to issue a special thank you to all those in the community who have brought Spring Security this far! We hope to see many more contributions from everyone down the road.

OAuth 2.0
