Release notes

Byte Buddy 1.18.14

• Avoid exposure of the agent argument on the command line of the process that is spawned for an external attachment.

• Limit the nesting depth that is accepted when parsing a generic type signature to avoid an exhaustion of the stack for a malformed class file.
• Sign all deployed files using sigstore, in addition to the existing GPG signature.
• Validate entry names when the Android plugin retains a file to avoid the propagation of path traversals.

Byte Buddy 1.18.13

• Actually include the SBOM within the published artifacts.
• Avoid propagation of path traversals that are contained in jar files which are copied without transformation.
• Avoid repeated traversal of previously visited type hierarchies to improve performance.

[dependabot]

OK, I won't notify you again about this release, but will get in touch when a new version is available. If you'd rather skip all updates until the next major or minor version, let me know by commenting @dependabot ignore this major version or @dependabot ignore this minor version. You can also ignore all major, minor, or patch releases for a dependency by adding an ignore condition with the desired update_types to your config file.

If you change your mind, just re-open this PR and I'll resolve any conflicts on it.
