While upgrading jar files Caused by java.lang.IllegalArgumentException

Question

I have been facing this issue from few days now. If you can help me understand how to solve this problem, it would be greatly appreciated. This is a pretty old project working on Java 1.8, JSF Prime faces, Maven 3.1 and Wildfly 13. There was lot of security issues, so we were upgrading few jar files. Below is the complete error log.
