Thanks for reporting this issue
Document updated, should be published in a couple of hours
> Default WebApplicationExceptionMapper is preferred over custom one but
> Documentation states opposite
> ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: CXF-8112
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-8112
> Project: CXF
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Affects Versions: 3.3.3
> Reporter: Daniel H. Peger
> Assignee: Freeman Fang
> Priority: Major
>
> The documentation on customizing the exception mapping in JAX-RS mentions
> that custom mappers will be preferred over the default
> {{WebApplicationExceptionMapper}}:
> {quote}Note that the custom WebApplicationException mapper, if registered,
> will be preferred to the default one.{quote}
> See
> https://cxf.apache.org/docs/jax-rs-basics.html#JAX-RSBasics-CustomizingdefaultWebApplicationExceptionmapper
> Lately I noticed that after upgrading CXF this is not true anymore for
> exception mappers that handle all kind of exceptions like
> {{ExceptionMapper<Throwable>}}.
> In CXF-6568 it is mentioned that a new property (actual property name seems
> to be {{default.wae.mapper.least.specific}}) was introduced to restore the
> previous behavior. I think this property should be mentioned on the JAX-RS
> basics page, as I didn't find any other resource pointing to this possibility.
