To locate the correct and legitimate version in Maven, you need to follow these steps:

1. Determine the groupId, artifactId, and version of the library or framework that you want to use.

2. Search for the artifact by navigating to the Maven Central Repository website (https://search.maven.org/) or by using your preferred search engine.

3. Enter the groupId, artifactId, and version of the desired library or framework in the search bar.

4. Verify that the search result is from a reputable source by checking the repository name and the number of downloads.

5. Review the pom.xml file included with the artifact to ensure it contains the dependencies and versions you need.

6. Add the dependency to your project's pom.xml file and verify that it is resolving correctly by building and running your project.
