Aws vault spring boot error making upstream request: received error code 403 from STS

Vault
1

Hello,
i use vault v1.17.5 and org.springframework.vault:spring-vault-core:3.1.2

When using kv_v1 secrets i get an error after 6 hours and i don’t know why.
Until the 6 hour mark the kv-secrets are refreshed regularly and auth/token/renew-self
and auth/aws-iam/login are called successfully every 1 hour.

But after 6 hours i get “error making upstream request: received error code 403 from STS: The security token included in the request is expired”:

{
    "auth": {
        "policy_results": {
            "allowed": true
        },
        "token_type": "default"
    },

        },
        "mount_accessor": "auth_aws_ec607cf2",
        "mount_class": "auth",
        "mount_point": "auth/aws-iam/",
        "mount_running_plugin_version": "v1.17.5+builtin.vault",
        "mount_type": "aws"
    },
    "time": "2024-09-20T17:47:55.325205678Z",
    "type": "response"
}

This doesnt correspond to the ttl of the “aws-iam” auth backend which is set to 3 hours and also not to the roles STS 1 hour maximum ttl.

I don’t understand where this 6 hour expiration comes from.
Anybody have an idea?
