For years Spring Security exposes method WebSecurity#ignoring but pollutes logs with false positive warning.
Let's analyze my case.
Spring Security authorizes by default access to actuator endpoints and that is OK.
However, nowadays applications are often cogs in machine and is important to distinguish application responsibily and cloud/Kubernetes/service mesh responsibility
Actuator endpoints, identical for hundreds application, should be protected by Kubernetes, not by application. It is not application responsibility
Application responsibility is configuring business endpoint access
See this snippet
```
httpSecurity.authorizeHttpRequests ( configurer -> configurer
.requestMatchers("/illness/covid/statistics/2021").permitAll()
.requestMatchers("/illness/myillness").authenticated()
---
webSecurity.ignoring().requestMatchers("/actuator")
```
It clearly shows that application responsibily is expose publicly world statistics by restrics access to private data
And, what more important, it clearly shows that actuator access IS NOT application responsibilty
I think it is more readable than
```
httpSecurity.authorizeHttpRequests ( configurer -> configurer
.requestMatchers("/illness/covid/statistics/2021").permitAll()
.requestMatchers("/actuator").permitAll()
.requestMatchers("/illness/myillness").authenticated()
```
Conclusion:
I want remove warning WebSecurity#ignoring because I want promote clear, straightforwad, readable code
