I looked through my dependencies to find version conflicts with woodstox or stax-api.

Turns out that axis2-transport-http introduced these conflicts.

If you happen to have this dependency as well, add the following exclusion to your pom dependency that introduced it

            
                org.apache.axis2
                axis2-transport-http
