Incompatibility with Maven 3.3.9

We are using this plugin to generate a Swagger definition file in one of our projects. Once we wanted to deploy our artifacts to Nexus we ran into an issue on Jenkins (Maven version 3.3.9): https://gist.github.com/user667/c750fad5eb40956713b2c6ec366e1026 This is due to an incompatiblilty of Maven 3.3.9 and the dependencies set in this plugin, namely org.apache.maven.plugin-tools:maven-plugin-annotations:3.5 and org.apache.maven:maven-plugin-api:3.6.0, org.apache.maven:maven-core:3.6.0 and org.apache.maven:maven-artifact:3.6.0. Using Maven version 3.5+ doesn't have the issue.

Is it safe to use the workaround mentioned below (i.e. downgroading version 3.2.5/3.4)? And/or is it necessary to use the latest maven versions as a dependency?

To Reproduce Use Maven (version 3.3.9) and deploy (mvn clean deploy) an artifact that uses this plugin.

Expected behavior maven-deploy-plugin:3.0.0-M1:deploy should be successful.

Additional context As a workaround, one can override the above dependencies:
