v1.18.11

• Add SBOM to published artifacts.
• Check for traversable paths injected into class files as a rather hypothetical attack vector.

v1.18.10

v1.18.9

• Disable use of Unsafe by default when Java 25or newer is discovered.

• Improve use of build cache in Gradle.

v1.18.1

• Avoid propagation of path traversals that are contained in jar files which are copied without transformation.
• Avoid repeated traversal of previously visited type hierarchies to improve performance.

Code Review

This pull request updates the byte-buddy dependency version in the pom.xml file. The review suggests using the standard 1.18.8 version instead of the 1.18.8-jdk5 variant, as the project targets Java 8 or higher and does not require the legacy-compatible version.

[gemini-code-assist]

Byte Buddy 1.18.7 introduced a new versioning scheme where the regular version (e.g., 1.18.8) targets Java 8 as a baseline, while the -jdk5 suffix is specifically for backwards compatibility with older environments. Since this project targets Java 8 or higher, it is recommended to use the standard 1.18.8 version to align with the library's intended distribution for modern Java environments and avoid using the legacy-compatible variant unnecessarily.
