I am having the same issue. Did anyone find the solution for this ?

I've just succeeded using WSL2 Ubuntu with

$ mvn --version
Apache Maven 3.6.3
Maven home: /usr/share/maven
Java version: 17.0.12, vendor: IBM Corporation, runtime: /opt/jdk-17.0.12+7
Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "5.15.153.1-microsoft-standard-wsl2", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"

$ javac -version
javac 17.0.12

so the issue might relate to running a Mac, or possibly the Java level.

I know this is a little old now but the problem reported is an encoding issue. To get around it simply run the maven build with the option -D"project.build.sourceEncoding=ISO-8859-1". The command would then be:

mvn clean package -D"project.build.sourceEncoding=ISO-8859-1"
