Getting Unauthorized error messages with GKEStartPodOperator if pod execution is over 1 hour #31648

Description

@sgomezf

Apache Airflow version

2.6.1

What happened

After installing 2.6.1 with fix #31391 we could see our DAGs running normally, except that when they take more than 60 minutes, it stops reporting the log/status, and even if task is completed within job pod, is always marked as failure due to the "Unauthorized" errors.

Log of job running starting and authenticating (some info redacted):

Job retries with same result and is marked as failed.

What you think should happen instead

Pod continues to report log and status of pod until completion (even if it takes over 1 hr), and job is marked as successful.

How to reproduce

Create a DAG that makes use of GKEStartPodOperator with a task that will take over one hour.
