As long as your project depends on A:1.0, B:2.3 and C:1.0 will be transitive dependencies. If C comes in a new version 1.1, your project will still get C:1.0 as a transitive dependency. If B wants to use C:1.1, B will come in a new version, say 2.4 that depends on C:1.1. The only way for your project to be affected by the release of C:1.1 is that A has a new release that depends on B:2.4, and your project is updated to depend on this new version of A.
