Gateway connection glitch causes restart of Node-Red (uncaught)

[camphamp]

Occasionally, I notice Node-Red crashing/restarting and the syslog notes the cause as the "tuya-smart-device" node (syslog):

I installed an "exception catch node" for the flow but it doesn't report any error nor does it prevent the Node-Red crash.

The device that it was in the midst of connecting to is a TUYA Gateway:
Product Name GW018-DM

The last Tuya cloud ping from that device stated:
signal intensity:-35||Remaining memory:1896128||UTC:1688135839||time zone:-05:00||DST:1688139439

I have the same issue. When trying to connect to the device the node brings the whole docker container down.

docker logs:

Looks like I have related issue.
After a while smart device node hangs in "Connecting" state.
It's not possible to reconnect to a device. Only node red redeploy helps.

Getting similar/same issue with Node-RED repeatedly crashing after an uncaught exception from this node. Using Tuya thermostats.
