Description

The DefaultAuthenticationEventPublisher.publishAuthenticationFailure() method handles AuthenticationServiceException well, but not InternalAuthenticationServiceException (it does not creates an event for it)

(I guess there should be an addMapping() call in the DefaultAuthenticationEventPublisher's constructor for InternalAuthenticationServiceException as well)

Actual Behavior

No event published.

Expected Behavior

I'd expect the same (or similar behaviour) like for an AuthenticationServiceException.

Version

Spring Boot 2.0.0 M1 (using all the default versions)
Spring Security 5.0.0 M1

Research direction

Start in DefaultAuthenticationEventPublisher.publishAuthenticationFailure() and its constructor, comparing the existing AuthenticationServiceException handling with InternalAuthenticationServiceException. Verify the no-event case and confirm that the latter produces the same or equivalent authentication event behavior as the former.
