Hi,

Hibernate Validator can be upgraded to the latest stable: Hibernate Validator 5.3.2.Final.

API wise, there are very few changes except to features that were experimental.

WildFly is currently using 5.2.4.Final.

Changes from 5.2.4.Final to 5.3.2.Final:
 * bugfixes, some of them are only available in the 5.3.x branch so they are by themselves a good reason to upgrade;
 * the ability to add dynamic payloads to contraint violations. See http://in.relation.to/2016/01/18/hibernate-validator-530-alpha1-out/ for more information.
 * a new programmatic API for constraint definition and declaration: it replaces an experimental feature with something more consistent with the rest of Hibernate Validator APIs. See http://in.relation.to/2016/09/05/hibernate-validator-530-cr1-out/ for more information
 * new translations of the builtin constraints messages
 * various improvements to the OSGi support
 * various improvements to the JDK 9 support

Full changelog: https://github.com/hibernate/hibernate-validator/blob/5.3.2.Final/changelog.txt

Migration guide for 5.3 outlining the changes requiring attention when upgrading: https://developer.jboss.org/wiki/HibernateValidatorMigrationGuide#jive_content_id_53x

I'm working on validating the upgrade in WildFly and preparing a PR.
