Spring Cloud Gateway Server MVC - keeps loading forever after exactly 5 requests from the browser
Describe the bug spring-boot version=3.4.3 spring-cloud-starter-gateway-mvc version=4.2.2 httpclient5 version=5.5 Java=17 I am using spring cloud gateway server mvc to serve a react.js frontend. The gateway works fine for exactly 5 requests, upon the 6th request the browser keeps loading forever and no request is received-- neither at the gateway(backend) or the frontend. This issue occurs only when apache httpclient5 is present on the classpath. When removed everything works fine. But I need to use httpclient5 for other functions too.
I have also tried using different versions of gateway-mvc/spring-boot/httpclient5 but the issue persisted. I have not provided any custom configurations for the httpclient.
If this property is set the gateway atleast works for 5 requests, on removing this property..it does not work even at 1st request and keeps on loading forever.
spring.cloud.gateway.mvc.http-client.type=AUTODETECT is already set.`
Sample A simple spring-boot application used for redirecting requests to a react.js frontend. No custom configurations used for any library.

Found the issue- This only occurs when the frontend application uses react version 15 or lower. React version 17 and above works fine.
Still waiting for a project that reproduces the problem as requested above
