Cobalt: Unexpected disconnects(Bad mac and other related issues)

I am seeing this error a lot. Any idea? I am running 3.4.0. The application would run for an hour or so and then sudently this exception would happen which kills the application. App is running on Ubuntu 22 with Java 17.

Received node Node[description=stream:error, content=[Node[description=bad-mac]]]

I can confirm I’m getting the same error on 3.4.1 if that helps in any way.
