Description

Apologies if this is a duplicate. We're about to upgrade to 3.2.6 on Apache Tika, and we're still getting the following when we run our unit tests with Java 11.

Illegal reflective access by org.apache.cxf.common.util.ReflectionUtil$11 (file:.....m2/repository/org/apache/cxf/cxf-core/3.2.6/cxf-core-3.2.6.jar) to field java.net.Authenticator.theAuthenticator
WARNING: Please consider reporting this to the maintainers of org.apache.cxf.common.util.ReflectionUtil$11
WARNING: Use --illegal-access=warn to enable warnings of further illegal reflective access operations

Let us know if you need more info to solve this.  Thank you!
