`When running latest version of surefire plugin and latest version of junit it causes a failure in the ``goal org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:3.0.0-M5:test`

`If you use junit 5.7.2 then it works fine or you can use junit 5.8.2 + maven-surefire-plugin 2.22.2 and it works fine. But if you use both together then it results in:`

It's also worth noting that we've been unable to reproduce this locally (using macbook pro). This seems to only happen on build machines where the build/compile/test runs inside of docker containers. If you try to run the same docker container locally with the same tests then it seems to also work.

**Affects:** 3.0.0-M5

**Attachments:**
- [error.log](https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/attachment/13037976/error.log) (_58.77 kB_)

Start with the attached error.log and the reported org.apache.maven.plugins:maven-surefire-plugin:3.0.0-M5:test failure, comparing JUnit 5.7.2 with Surefire 3.0.0-M5 and JUnit 5.8.2 with Surefire 2.22.2. Reproduce the failure in the Docker build-machine setup and inspect the target/surefire-reports and forked-process stack trace. Done means the incompatible version combination is diagnosed and the failure is fixed or covered by a regression test.
