I am upgrading Flask in an application. All works fine on Flask 2.1.5, but when going to 2.2.5, I get the below exception.

Anyone have any clue why? I use Flask-SocketIO 5.3.4. Is it too recent?

@larsderidder this is a strange error. Are you doing anything related to app or request contexts in the Socket.IO event handler that runs right before this error appears?
