This has been addressed in #18899 already, for release in 4.3 GA this week. Unfortunately Hibernate all of a sudden broke an API which has been stable for more than ten years, without any milestones or release candidates or other advance warnings, so it was a surprise to us as well.

For use with Spring Framework 4.2.x, we recommend Hibernate ORM up until 5.1. You'll have to upgrade to Spring Framework 4.3 in order to pick up Hibernate ORM 5.2 (which is a pretty major upgrade anyway, not just in terms of integration with Spring).

I have upgraded spring framework to 4.3 and using hibernate 5.2 but I am facing issues.Like : Initialization of bean failed; nested exception is java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: org/hibernate/HibernateException : Unsupported major.minor version 52.0

This simply indicates that Hibernate 5.2 requires JDK 8 now, and you're probably running on JDK 7...
