Apache HttpClient v4.x+ is no longer being maintained. Outside of security vulnerabilities, new features and fixes are going into v5.x+.
Describe the solution you'd like
Update to use v5.x+
Describe alternatives you've considered
Switch to Java 11's Http Client
Given that Spring 6 now defaults to Http Client 5, it's a bit annoying to have other 3rd party dependencies potentially holding it back.
