Description
We should consider adding dependency convergence detection to our build to prevent issues like gh-13843. For example, the following dependencies must agree on the version of com.nimbusds:nimbus-jose-jwt.
spring-security-oauth2-client->com.nimbusds:oauth2-oidc-sdk->com.nimbusds:nimbus-jose-jwtspring-security-oauth2-jose->com.nimbusds:nimbus-jose-jwt

Research direction
Start by reading the related issue gh-13843 and its linked comment to understand the dependency-version failure described here. Then inspect the repository's build configuration and determine how convergence checks could cover the listed Nimbus dependencies; done means the build detects incompatible versions before they cause this class of issue.
