Hello @oussamaElwess 👋 It looks like you didn't include the full Salesforce CLI version information in your issue.
Please provide the output of version --verbose --json for the CLI you're using (sf or sfdx).

A few more things to check:

• Make sure you've provided detailed steps to reproduce your issue.
  • A repository that clearly demonstrates the bug is ideal.
• Make sure you've installed the latest version of Salesforce CLI. (docs)
  • Better yet, try the rc or nightly versions. (docs)
• Try running the doctor command to diagnose common issues.
• Search GitHub for existing related issues.

Thank you!

I also got the same error in latest version. I observe it since 2.107.6, 2.108.6
I use sf cli with the global npm scope.

This issue has been fixed in apex-plugin v3.8.3...
I have resolved this for myself by using sf plugins install apex@3.8.3
