IllegalAccessError in Java SE app with Weld implementation

Question

I am trying to run a standalone app that has Weld implementation of CDI, and in that app I need EntityManager to work with Oracle database.

When I run my app (via Weld main method), following is shown in cmd line:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access class javax.xml.parsers.FactoryFinder from class javax.xml.parsers.FactoryFinder$ConfigurationError
    at java.lang.Class.getDeclaringClass0(Native Method)

What could cause such an error?

Here is my persistence.xml:

<persistence-unit name="oracleUnit"
                  transaction-type="RESOURCE_LOCAL">
    <provider>org.hibernate.ejb.HibernatePersistence</provider>

    <class>entities.MyEntity</class>

    <properties>
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.driver" value="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" />
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.platform"
                  value="org.eclipse.persistence.platform.database.oracle.OraclePlatform" />

        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.url"
                  value="jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:orcl" />
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.user" value="TEST" />
        <property name="javax.persistence.jdbc.password" value="test" />

        <property name="hibernate.dialect" value="org.hibernate.dialect.Oracle10gDialect"/>
    </properties>
</persistence-unit>

Here are dependencies:

<dependencies>

    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.weld.se</groupId>
        <artifactId>weld-se-core</artifactId>
        <version>1.1.10.Final</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-core</artifactId>
        <version>4.3.8.Final</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-entitymanager</artifactId>
        <version>4.3.8.Final</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.hibernate</groupId>
        <artifactId>hibernate-validator</artifactId>
        <version>5.1.3.Final</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.oracle</groupId>
        <artifactId>ojdbc6</artifactId>
        <version>11.2.0.3</version>
    </dependency>

Here is how I create Entity Manager, fairly standard:

  EntityManagerFactory emf = Persistence.createEntityManagerFactory("oracleUnit");
    EntityManager em = emf.createEntityManager();

Updating Weld dependency to the newest one solved the issue.

Dependencies now look as following:

<dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss.weld.se</groupId>
        <artifactId>weld-se-core</artifactId>
        <version>3.0.0.Alpha14</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>org.jboss</groupId>
        <artifactId>jandex</artifactId>
        <version>1.2.2.Final</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>javax.servlet</groupId>
        <artifactId>javax.servlet-api</artifactId>
        <version>3.1.0</version>
    </dependency>
    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.oracle</groupId>
        <artifactId>ojdbc6</artifactId>
        <version>11.2.0.3</version>
