You need to talk to the Spring folks then. Default Tomcat behaviour is to return a 405 with an error message in the response. I've just doubled checked this with telnet and 9.0.x.

As an aside, the idea that any TRACE response is a security issue with the server, whether it contains a "malicious" header or not is nonsense. The only thing a user agent anywhere should be doing with a TRACE response is displaying it as plain text. If a user agent does something else with the response, and especially if it does something reckless like treating it is HTML, then than is a security issue with the user agent, not the server.

Super duper vuln:

$ curl -X TRACE --header '....' myurl | bash

RCE every time, bro.

You would have got bonus points if the first character was '#' rather than '$'.
