There is already a related issue in aws sdk project: aws/aws-sdk-js-v3#6779

[Adesin-fr]

Hi,

Has anybody found a workaround for this in the meantime ?

In the aws/aws-sdk-js ticket, it seems to be a nodejs version related problem, which can be (temporary) resolved by setting a newer node version (like 18 or 20)

[Adesin-fr]

Edit :
Looking at this repo, it seems that serverless/github-action@v3 uses an old version of Node, BUT, serverless/[email protected] uses a more recent version !

I've tried with one of my repo, and it fixes the problem !

Thank you, @Adesin-fr !

I can confirm that serverless/[email protected] does the job.

As we're using dependabot which always wanted to update to v4, we missed those minor versions.

To not oversee new minor versions again, I updated dependabot.yml like this:

...
  - package-ecosystem: "github-actions"
    target-branch: "main"
    directory: "/" # default location of .github/workflows
    schedule:
      interval: "daily"
    ignore:
      - dependency-name: "serverless/github-action"
        update-types: ["version-update:semver-major"]
...
