**Describe the bug** Basically issue [954](https://github.com/kubernetes-client/javascript/issues/954) again You're referencing process.env and then overwriting the values in it. https://github.com/kubernetes-client/javascript/blob/main/src/exec_auth.ts#L99 Should copy the existing env for the auth command execution. ``` const env = { ...process.env }; ```
