Description

I have some company confidential projects (therefore no reproduction pom), which cause an endless loop when running

mvn versions:display-plugin-updates

The endless loop happens in StringSearchModelInterpolator.traverseObjectWithParents calling itself (which I can see by attaching a profiler to the process). Please add a check for whether the superClass is identical to the class, before entering the recursion.
