Which spring-security version is compatible with Spring 4.3.10-RELEASE?

Question

I am upgrading JARs across the projects to the latest release/stable versions for live deployment. I did not have any issue upgrading until I tried upgrade :

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-security-bom</artifactId>
            <version>4.1.3.RELEASE</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>

To:

        <dependency>
            <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
            <artifactId>spring-security-bom</artifactId>
            <version>4.2.3.RELEASE</version>
            <type>pom</type>
            <scope>import</scope>
        </dependency>

I had to revert it back to 4.1.3 as I was getting :

java.lang.IllegalStateException: BeanFactory not initialized or already closed - call 'refresh' before accessing beans via the ApplicationContext 

Has anyone tried it ?

You can try this:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-security-bom</artifactId>
    <version>4.2.0.RELEASE</version>
    <type>pom</type>
</dependency>
