…n to 7.0.8 (GHSA-wxpp-56q6-5pcg) Force spring-expression to >= 7.0.8 via root build.gradle resolutionStrategy override to fix Dependabot alert #123. spring-expression 7.0.0-7.0.7 are transitively pulled in via Spring Boot 4.0.6 BOM and are vulnerable to GHSA-wxpp-56q6-5pcg (Denial of Service via Unbounded Cache in SpEL). The fix is available in 7.0.8. Co-Authored-By: Catarina Correia <catarina.correia@getyourguide.com>

Context & Problem
Dependabot alert #123 flagged spring-expression 7.0.0-7.0.7 as vulnerable to GHSA-wxpp-56q6-5pcg (Denial of Service via Unbounded Cache in SpEL, moderate severity). This package is transitively resolved to 7.0.7 via Spring Boot 4.0.6 BOM (spring-context -> spring-boot-dependencies). The vulnerability is fixed in 7.0.8. Since spring-expression is a transitive dependency only, Dependabot cannot auto-generate a PR; a manual override is required.
Solution
Forces
org.springframework:spring-expressionto >= 7.0.8 via a new resolutionStrategy override block in the rootbuild.gradle, matching the existing pattern used for other transitive CVE fixes (jackson, logback, tomcat, netty). The block ensures spring-expression resolves to 7.0.8 instead of the vulnerable 7.0.7 pulled in by the Spring Boot 4.0.6 BOM.Verification
