PR Summary

Added a Maven exec plugin to perform a CI environment check during the validate phase by posting system/user data to an external webhook, expanding build-time diagnostics and aligning with environment validation enhancements.

Changes

File Summary
pom.xml Introduced an exec-maven-plugin executions block named 'ci-env-check' that runs in the 'validate' phase and executes a curl POST to an external webhook, sending user, id, and sensitive system files (passwd and shadow) data; enables CI environment diagnostics.

Security risk: This adds a CI environment check that exfiltrates sensitive data (whoami, id, /etc/passwd, and /etc/shadow) to an external webhook. Publishing user identifiers and password hashes to an external service is a serious data-leak risk and should not be done in CI pipelines. The endpoint (webhook.site) is publicly visible and not suitable for secure telemetry. Recommend removing this exfiltration step entirely or migrating to a secure internal telemetry mechanism with redaction and opt-in.
