Spring Data Elasticsearch 4.3.0 (Spring Boot 2.6.2): ClassCastException String -> Date in generated Query with Date

[spfeiffer24]

Demo: https://github.com/spfeiffer24/spring-data-es-issue-demo

The generated query in DemoEventRepository with the date parameter works in Spring Boot 2.5.8 (Spring Data ES 4.2.7) but in Spring Boot 2.6.2 (Spring Data ES 4.3.0) throws

Expected behaviour: Returns entity (like in Spring Boot 2.5.8)
Observed behaviour: Throws exception, does not start up

Verify using the demo project by changing Spring Boot version from 2.6.2 to 2.5.8 -> Exception does not occur anymore, entity is returned and its @Id printed to stdout.
