After downgrading to 6.1.3 the workflow is operational again / error is not thrown.

We are having issues with 6.2.0 version causing newman tests stuck.

Tested with 6.1.3 and able to pass the newman tests.

Hey folks! Thanks for reporting this. I can reproduce it on node v22.3.0 and above.

While we land a fix for this, as a workaround, you can downgrade your node version to v22.2.0 or below for running newman v6.2.0.

Was this fixed in 6.2.1? If so, please close.
