Spring Security org.springframework.security.web.firewall.RequestWrapper not declared public

org.springframework.security.web.firewall.RequestWrapper not declared public

Trying to create an filter to handle certain conditions like ExpiredPasswordFilter and since RequestWrapper is not declared public, I'm unable to cast it (because import org.springframework.security.web.firewall.RequestWrapper says the class is not visible)

My current (silly) Workaround is: put ExpiredPasswordFilter in org.springframework.security.web.firewall package

org.springframework.security.web.firewall.RequestWrapper declared public

It is intentionally encapsulated. You can cast to FirewalledRequest instead.
