java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.util.List.size()" because "genericTypes" is null

[yatharth23112001]

As part of Spring boot 3.2 migration and Java 21 upgrade, I migrated to eclipselink 4.0.2 and the eclipse-link-plugin to 3.0.2.
But after the upgrade facing the below issue:

Failed to execute goal com.ethlo.persistence.tools:eclipselink-maven-plugin:3.0.2:weave (default) on project :
Exception [EclipseLink-28018] (Eclipse Persistence Services - 4.0.2.v202306161219): org.eclipse.persistence.exceptions.EntityManagerSetupException
[ERROR] Exception Description: Predeployment of PersistenceUnit failed.
[ERROR] Internal Exception: java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot invoke "java.util.List.size()" because "genericTypes" is null

I have configured the plugin a follows:

com.ethlo.persistence.tools eclipselink-maven-plugin ${eclipselink-maven-plugin.version} process-classes weave

Is there some compatibility issue with among the above version, how can we resolve it
