Thanks for the PR, but as mentioned in the pull request template we have a semi-automated process for dependency upgrades that we prefer to use.

@philwebb I'm having trouble to understand what finally happend to this PR and the other https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/issues/24331 you makred as superseded. Do you know if this dependency upgrade will be available in the next spring boot version slated for 10th of december? Thanks!

@iwt-gregorpoloczek Phil mentioned we have a semi-automated process for dependency upgrades. We will run that prior to any release as we always do.
