If just upgrading to asm 5.* doesn't work for you, exclude all asm jars from jetty as well. This configuration worked for me:

        
            org.eclipse.jetty
            jetty-maven-plugin
            9.4.6.v20170531
            
                
                    .*/^(asm-all-repackaged)[^/]*\.jar$
                
            
            
                
                    org.ow2.asm
                    asm
                    5.2
                
                
                    org.ow2.asm
                    asm-commons
                    5.2
