Description

We have updated the used Kafka Clients to v3.1.1 via FLINK-28060 and then to v3.2.1 via FLINK-28060 and finally to v3.2.3 via FLINK-29513, but we are using Confluent Platform 6.2.2 which supports up to Kafka 2.8.0.

We should update to Confluent Platform v7.2.2 (latest version of 7.2), which includes support for Kafka 3.2.3.
