 Solution:

Spring 4.3.X has above jackson issue. Need to upgrade jackson-2.7.3 dependency:

<properties>
     <jaction.xml.version>2.7.3</jaction.xml.version>
</properties>

        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
            <artifactId>jackson-core</artifactId>
            <version>${jaction.xml.version}</version>
        </dependency>
        <dependency>
            <groupId>com.fasterxml.jackson.core</groupId>
            <artifactId>jackson-databind</artifactId>
            <version>${jaction.xml.version}</version>
        </dependency>
