Try with this:

<dependency>
    <groupId>org.springframework.security</groupId>
    <artifactId>spring-security-web</artifactId>
    <version>4.0.4.RELEASE</version>
</dependency>

CodePudding user response：

Resolved the issue. The issue was related to assigning parameter values through @value annotation. I was missing on annotating the class with @Component annotation as @value only works for beans and you have to annotate a class with @Component for that to work.
