I am using ODC Maven plugin 1.4.5 from Jenkins job. Note that I am not using ODC Jenkins plugin, I am using Maven plugin using Excute shell feature of Jenkins.
mvn -B -f <path to pom> -gs <path to maven global settings file> org.owasp:dependency-check-maven:1.4.5:aggregate -Dformat=ALL -DcveValidForHours=24 -DassemblyAnalyzerEnabled=false -DarchiveAnalyzerEnabled=false
Above command fails if I use POM path with symlink and works if I use path without symlink.
I tried removing local .m2 cache, another host without any success.
I ran tool into debug mode & following diff observed for actual path vs symlink path (right side)

After above error, In case of symlink path, not all sub-modules were detected and JAR Analyzer was skipped which leads to blank reports.
