Hibernate Validator is the reference implementation for the Bean Validation specification. For more information, see Hibernate Validator on hibernate.org.

We just released Hibernate Validator 6.1.7.Final which contains some minor fixes.

This is a recommended upgrade for everyone using Hibernate Validator and it is a drop-in replacement for 6.1.6.Final.

We also released 6.0.22.Final.

Full changelog

The complete list of fixed issues can be found on our JIRA for 6.1 and 6.0.

Getting 6.1.7.Final

To get the release with Maven, Gradle etc. use the following GAV coordinates:

  • org.hibernate.validator:hibernate-validator:6.1.7.Final

  • org.hibernate.validator:hibernate-validator-cdi:6.1.7.Final

  • org.hibernate.validator:hibernate-validator-annotation-processor:6.1.7.Final

Note that the group id has changed from org.hibernate (Hibernate Validator 5 and earlier) to org.hibernate.validator (from Hibernate Validator 6 onwards).

Alternatively, a distribution bundle containing all the bits is provided on SourceForge (TAR.GZ, ZIP).

If you want to benefit from the new features of this version on WildFly, we also provide WildFly patches for WildFly 19 and WildFly 18.0.1. You can read about how to apply such patches here.
