Issue

Environment

  • Liferay DXP 7.3 +

Resolution

  • A fix was made available in version 5.3.41. However spring only gives the updated version for the commercial customer. In our 7.3.x upstream and beyond, we removed the usage of spring-webmvc as it is unused to avoid this issue.

    In case you are using an older version, please open a ticket requesting a hotfix from Liferay Support in order to remove the spring jars files.
