🔴 📦 DEPENDENCY: Upgraded Spring Framework dependency to address security flaws

The version of the 'org.springframework:spring-web' dependency was updated from 5.3.31 to 5.3.36. This change directly upgrades the Spring Framework library, and as described in the PR, this update incorporates upstream security patches addressing known vulnerabilities. Such an upgrade reduces the project's exposure to previously reported security flaws in the older version.

Justification

  • Upgrading the Spring dependency removes exposure to known vulnerabilities present in versions prior to 5.3.36.

  • The PR references CVEs of high severity, indicating direct security impact.

  • The change matches the 'New Dependency Added/Updated' and 'Vulnerabilities & Exploits' rules, both emphasizing the mitigation of supply chain risk and known exploits.

  • A score of 8 reflects the significant reduction in risk by patching actively known high severity flaws.
