    ~~In v1.24.0, `kubectl` will report the following error when relying on the kubeconfig generated by aws-cli~~

    The reason is that Kubernetes deprecated `client.authentication.k8s.io/v1alpha1"` from the `exec` plugin in [PR108616](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/108616)

    1. Roll back kubectl to any version less than v1.24.0

    1. 将 kubectl 回退至任意小于 v1.24.0 的版本
    2. 以 MacOS + HomeBrew 为例：
    1. 修改你 kubeconfig 中的 "client.authentication.k8s.io/v1alpha1" 为 "client.authentication.k8s.io/v1beta1"
