Jenkins WorkflowScript: Loading libraries failed

I am using jenkins as my CI/CD and this suddenly started to happen. Jenkins file loads libraries from different repository but located on the same git account and it was working fine. Now all the declarative pipelines not working and throwing this weird error.
Jenkins version: 2.263.3
Java 11
Jenkinsfile:
#!/usr/bin/env groovy

@Library('jenkins-shared-library') _

MyPipeline()

java.lang.NullPointerException

I just lost a good fistful of my hair trying to find the cause of this error before I realized that it happened because I had a parameter named path for the pipeline. For some unholy reason, this overwrote the system PATH variable inside the script that checks out the library.

The root error I got (i.e. the cause of WorkflowScript: Loading libraries failed) was:

stderr: /var/jenkins_home/workspace/my-job@libs/my-library@tmp/jenkins-gitclient-ssh2579541546742439932.sh-copy: 6: ssh: not found
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

One thing I want to add here is, you need to add the shared libraries at the root level or at the folder level. You can't really add at the Job level

Can you check in : manage jenkins > configure system > Global Pipeline Libraries ? You should have something like this: enter image description here
