[JENKINS-32000] durable-task 1.7 breaks workflow bat steps

After updating durable-task from 1.6 to 1.7 workflow builds fail to execute bat steps:

[Workflow] bat

[workspace] Running batch script

'cmd' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

After switching back to durable-task version 1.6 everything is working again as expected
