Spring Cloud Contract is the culprit.

As @karim-tafik have posted, we could fix it by overriding all repositories inherited from dependencies to central.

Since we know which repo is the culprit, instead of overriding all repositories to central, we should preferably disable the bad repository only.

<settings>
    <mirrors>
        <mirror>
            <id>central-for-bad-restlet</id>
            <mirrorOf>maven-restlet</mirrorOf>
            <url>https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/</url>
        </mirror>
    </mirrors>
</settings>
