>                 Key: MSHARED-1290
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MSHARED-1290
>             Project: Maven Shared Components
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: maven-filtering
>    Affects Versions: maven-filtering-3.2.0, maven-filtering-3.3.0, maven-filtering-3.3.1
>            Reporter: Wouter Born
>            Priority: Major

> I upgraded the maven-assembly-plugin in one of my projects from 2.6 to 3.6.0 and found that {{PropertyUtils}} was logging many false positives about cycles between properties.
> The cycle detection (introduced for MSHARED-417) reports false positives when a variable occurs multiple times in a property, example:
> {code:java}
> depends=p1 >= ${version}, p2 >= ${version}, p3 >= ${version}
> version=1.2.3 {code}
> While writing a unit test to fix this, I also found that there are also cycle false positives whenever one of the property values is the same as a property name, example:
> {code:java}
> test1=${test2}
> test2=${test3}
> test3=test2{code}
