Authentication error - Invalid email/password combination

[docwisdom]

Describe the bug
I have had this container running just fine for a couple years. I found it stopped today so I assumed I just needed to enter my 2FA agin. When I ran the initialise command, I received an authentication error. Nothing has changed regarding the Apple credentials and I can access iCloud via the web just fine. See log output.

Expected behaviour
Request 2FA code

Actual behaviour
Receive authentication error

System (The following information must be entered or the issue will be closed):

• Docker on Unraid 6.12.13
• Alpine Linux 3.20.3
• icloud-photos-downloader version: 1.24.1
