Description

### Description:

I am building and deploying with SAM inside a Github Actions runner and occasionally get an error on the `sam build` command.

### Steps to reproduce:

The exact command that I'm running is `sam build --template ${SAM_TEMPLATE} --use-container`, the error output is below. This happens maybe once out of every 8-10 deployments, I have not been able to consistently reproduce the error.

It _seems_ to be more prevalent when I am deploying SAM applications that have more resources in the `template.yaml` but that's purely anecdotal. I have never received this error when running `sam build` on either of my local machines; one of these is Windows 10 and the other is running Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS. The Github runner also appears to be running that same version of Ubuntu.

### Observed result:
SAM builds all of my resources but after building the final resource, instead of a "Build Succeeded" message I receive this error:
```sh
Error: Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)

An unexpected error was encountered while executing "sam build".
```

### Expected result:
The command should run successfully.

### Additional environment details (Ex: Windows, Mac, Amazon Linux etc)

1. OS: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS
2. `sam --version`: 1.117.0
3. AWS region: us-east-2

I can add the output of `sam --info` to this Issue as well.

```
# Paste the output of `sam --info` here
```

`Add --debug flag to command you are running`
