We use MariaDB driver 2.7.3 & Hikari Datasource in the Java 11 application to connect to the AWS Aurora database. Intermittently we are getting Access denied to user
(using password: YES) error in the error log files. The following is the JDBC URL used in the application.
```
jdbc:mariadb:aurora://<DB writer endpoint>:port,<DB reader endpoint>:port/<DB name>?credentialType=AWS-IAM&useSSL=true&verifyServerCertificate=true&serverSslCert=rds-combined-ca-bundle.pem&autoReconnect=true&fastConnect=true&tcpNoDelay=true&socketTimeout=0
```

credentialType=AWS-IAM will use the RDS token as the password. From the error message, it looks like the expired token is used to get a database connection by the MariaDB driver. Can you please check if this is a bug in the MariaDB driver? Let us know if there is anything else we need to do from an application end? These are the properties set from the application.
