Exception: Error on line 26543: JAXP00010003: The length of entity "[xml]" is "100,001" that exceeds the "100,000" limit set by "jaxp.properties". myFunction @test.gs.gs:4

Please provide any additional information below.

This issue was first happening to us 2/3/25 2:19:08 AM EST, most likely you updated App Scripts to Java 24 which changed the JAXP limits from unlimited to 100.000.
