[🐛 Bug]: Geckodriver.get(url) throws error : INFO: HTTP Status: '500' -> incorrect JSON status mapping for 'timeout' (408 expected)

[Rima-tech-sql]

What happened?

We are using Mozilla firefox browser on a VM and selenium script (on headless mode) on this server invokes the geckodriver GET(URL) command to open the target fusion URL.It throws an error (attached)
Server team has confirmed that there are no security restrictions and we have verified the connectivity with telnet commands and its connecting to the URLs from this VM

Versions are -

1. Firefox 128.2.0esr
2. Geckodriver 0.35 (Tried 0.30 as well)
3. Selenium 3.14

This is the part of the code, right after the driver.get(targetURL), we get the error. Have Attached the complete error.
FirefoxOptions options = new FirefoxOptions();
options.setHeadless(true);
options.addPreference("webdriver_firefox_port", 44321); // Use any available port
options.addPreference("app.update.enabled", false); // Disable automatic updates

                System.setProperty("java.net.preferIPv4Stack", "true");

                options.setUnhandledPromptBehaviour(UnexpectedAlertBehaviour.IGNORE);
                //Uncomment this when you performing testing from local
                System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "geckodriver");
                //Uncomment this when you deploying app in server
                printException("Before Driver COnnection" , 1, con, null);
                
            //    System.setProperty("webdriver.gecko.driver", "/u01/app/oracle/deployment/selenium/geckodriver");
                
                driver = new FirefoxDriver(options);
                driver.manage().window().maximize();
                System.out.println("After Firefox driver connection");
                printException("After Driver COnnection" , 1, con, null);
                
                
                driver.get(targetUrl);    

Any help around this is much appreciated.
