Signing error on docker with WSL 2 engine

See original GitHub issue

Version: 22.8.0
Electron Version: 8.1.1
Electron Type (current, beta, nightly): current
Target: nsis
Docker-Image: electronuserland/builder:wine

I changed the windows docker engine from Hyper-V to WSL 2, an error occurred when signing the exe. With Hyper-V it works correctly. Because of the engine on WSL 2 the microsoft-standard os is used with Hyper-V the linuxkit. WSL 2 Engine:

I have the same issue with WSL2 and docker(electronuserland/builder:wine)

The execution point via wine mentioned below seemed to be suspicious, so I lowered the version of electron-builder to v21.0.10 and executed the build and it succeeded.
