>Solution :

It’s known issue related to @babel/traverse.

The temporary workaround is to override the dependency in `package.json` :

"overrides": {
    "@babel/traverse": "7.22.6"
},

A fix is being worked on by the babel team, the issue can be [tracked here][2].

Edit:
babel 7.22.8 has been published. Delete your package-lock and do a clean install !
